This case study highlights a joint effort to establish the Baltimore (MD) Convention Center Field Hospital, an alternate care site (ACS) created to help manage the patient surge from the COVID-19 pandemic. We highlight their experiences standing up and maintaining this ACS and challenges and considerations by category in the hopes that the information can be helpful to stakeholders engaged in similar planning and response efforts. COVID-19 Clinical Rounds Peer-to-Peer Virtual Communities of Practice are a collaborative effort between ASPR, the National Emerging Special Pathogen Training and Education Center (NETEC), and Project ECHO. These interactive virtual learning sessions aim to create a peer-to-peer learning network where clinicians from the U.S. and abroad who have experience treating patients with COVID-19 share their challenges and successes; a generous amount of time for participant Q & A is also provided. These webinar topics are covered every week: - EMS: Patient Care and Operations (Mondays, 12:00-1:00 PM ET)
- Critical Care: Lifesaving Treatment and Clinical Operations (Tuesdays, 12:00-1:00 PM ET)
- Emergency Department: Patient Care and Clinical Operations (Thursdays, 12:00-1:00 PM ET)
