Program Description: 
To enhance the understanding of bioethics in medical education, a card game named "Get Out of My Ethics Room (GOMER)" was created. GOMER is designed to engage medical students and resident physicians in navigating common medico-ethical dilemmas. By immersing players in dynamic simulations, the game not only fosters familiarity with ethical challenges but also cultivates strategic thinking to address these situations. The goal is to boost confidence and showcase the adaptability of bioethics across diverse medical scenarios.
 
Bioethics and Medical Humanities Grand Rounds provides a monthly forum for teaching participants to resolve cases based on the best ethical practices. Bioethics and Medical Humanities Grand Rounds also provides information on any legislative changes that occur so that clinicians are ready to implement them. The Center for Bioethics and Medical Humanities is the only clinical ethics center in Wisconsin. The faculty are leaders in clinical ethics and set the agenda for clinical ethics practice in Southeastern Wisconsin.
