JOURNAL CLUB – OPERATIONAL

  • No quiz
  • No asynchronous Review
  • See Journal Club Content below for reading requirements this week.

This week grand rounds will be held off site, but it will be held during NORMAL GRAND ROUNDS hours (1000-1500), unlike our normal evening journal club time. The only exemptions for journal club/wellness would be if you are on an out-of-town rotation or working nights.  

We will be doing some wellness activities and journal club. Journal Club will be different than in the past – all journals will now discuss a single topic.

  • Time: 1000-1500
  • Location: 108 W Kings Hwy, San Antonio, TX, 78212
  • Hosted by: Dr. Kester & Victoria Emergency Associates)
