Winter Respiratory Virus Prep: Clinics Patients

CME-Ready Clinical Program for Doctors

Program Description

The winter season brings a predictable surge of respiratory viral infections that challenge outpatient clinics, emergency departments, and primary care settings. Winter Respiratory Virus Prep: Clinics & Patients is a focused, evidence-based clinical program designed to help doctors confidently diagnose, risk-stratify, and manage common winter respiratory viruses—including influenza, COVID-19, and RSV—in real-world clinical practice.

This program emphasizes early recognition, rational testing, timely outpatient treatment, infection prevention, vaccination counselling, and patient communication, ensuring safe care while reducing unnecessary hospital referrals and antibiotic misuse. The curriculum is aligned with current national and international clinical guidance and structured to meet the professional standards expected by the National Medical Commission (NMC) and State Medical Councils.


Program Overview

Winter respiratory viruses often present with overlapping symptoms, creating diagnostic uncertainty and workflow strain in busy clinics. This course equips doctors with a practical, clinic-ready framework to manage seasonal respiratory illness effectively.

Through three concise modules, participants learn how to:

  • Identify high-risk patients early
  • Apply rational testing strategies
  • Initiate evidence-based outpatient treatment
  • Implement clinic-level infection prevention measures
  • Counsel patients on vaccination, home care, and warning signs

The program is ideal for doctors seeking clinical confidence, CME-relevant learning, and improved patient outcomes during winter respiratory surges.
