We initiated the Schwartz Rounds program in 2002 and it is still going strong, with an average of more than 100 attendees each month. The format allows for a free exchange of ideas, feelings and reactions, reinforcing the common humanity of caregivers, patients and families. Schwartz Rounds sessions are clearly now part of the fabric of our institution.
