1/ Have had the privilege of observing rounds lately as part of @UCSFMedicine's Learning/Caring Environment team.

Some early thoughts:
1) Every AM, trainees are asked to perform a multitude of competing, time-sensitive tasks

2) These tasks are not always compatible w/ rounding 2/
3) There is incredible heterogeneity in what "rounding" looks like and how long it lasts (b/w institutions, b/w teams, but also from day-to-day on same team!)

4) Is there any other profession that has this much variability in one of its core activities?
