Needs Statement and Objectives<br />
Based upon identified patient needs as reported<br />
by the alumni Board members & the 2011 scientific<br />
program evaluations it was determined that<br />
this year’s program would focus on: treatment<br />

programs, the impact of changes in the health<br />
care environment on patient care , DNR issues<br />
In the delivery room and new treatments for<br />
ocular infectious diseases.<br />
At the conclusion of this program participants<br />
will be provided information to increase their<br />
knowledge/understanding regarding: understand<br />
the role of radiological procedures in<br />
treating Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma; become<br />
aware of how electronic information systems<br />
enhance opioid treatment programs; learn how<br />
physician leadership and collaboration improves<br />
patient care; identify situations and the medical<br />
and emotional consequences when DNR with<br />
newborns is considered; and understand an alternative<br />
to antibiotics to treat ocular and other<br />
infectious diseases.
