CardiacVascular Nursing Grand Rounds
CardiacVascular
Nursing Grand Rounds aim to provide cardiac and vascular nurses with
current information to enhance care of patients with cardiovascular
disease. These rounds are targeted to Northwestern Memorial Hospital
staff nurses, educators, advance practice nurses, clinical managers,
and research nurses that directly/indirectly care for cardiovascular
patients from inpatient through outpatient settings.
Every effort has been made to keep the information listed below current. However, due to the responsibility to our patients and families, CardiacVascular Nursing Grand Rounds may be cancelled or require a time or room changed without notice. CardiacVascular Nursing Grand Rounds is offered to the healthcare professional only.
