Partnership
with Novartis brings evidence-based CME to Swiss physicians
Novartis Pharma Schweiz, one the world’s leading pharmaceutical companies,
has extended its relationship with HMI as part of a long-term strategy for
providing continuing medical education programs for Swiss physicians. The
success of courses on cardiology in 2004 and neurology, oncology, and cardiology
in 2005 has paved the way for a wide range of general and specialty programs
led by faculty from both Harvard Medical School and academic medical centers
in Switzerland. As of this writing, more than 350 physicians have attended
HMI-Novartis programs. |

Acibadem
hospitals focus on enhancing disaster management capabilities
Hospitals must be prepared not only to care for those injured by
natural or man-made disasters, but also to mitigate the effects of these events
on the facility itself. Acibadem Healthcare Group has made significant investments
in its physical plant, equipment, and human resources with this challenge
in mind. In June, Kadiköy Hospital in Istanbul was the site of Acibadem’s
first disaster drill to evaluate current emergency preparedness efforts. |
