CentraCare Performance Excellence is excited to announce the launch of our continuous clinical education series with CME credit called The Science of Practicing Medicine. With this endeavor we will provide ongoing, consistent, and relevant education for our colleagues. Join Infectious Disease expert, Lucio Minces, MD, for clinical discussions with CentraCare physicians. Each CME session will explore significant updates on clinical standards.
I do think there is an improvement in mortality because the patients we’re seeing are, in general, older and have more complex problems.
