Frequently Provided Services 

We frequently provide the following medical services, which include, but are not limited to: 

Medications

Antibiotic Stewardship

As a part of our ongoing quality improvement (QI) projects, we are practicing antibiotic stewardship.  Our study focuses on sore throats and antibiotics use.  In order to treat patients most effectively, our medical staff are prescribing antibiotics only as necessary to reduce antibiotic resistance.  Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria no longer respond to the drugs designed to kill them. Anytime antibiotics are used, they can cause antibiotic resistance.  

Influenza and Flu Shot Information

To better take care of yourself and the UMD community during "flu" season, we offer the following information for preventing the flu and caring for yourself should you get the flu.  If you need help distinguishing between a cold and the flu, check this page on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website,  Cold versus Flu.
