PROGRAM TOPICS

If you practice medicine, chances are you already have a pretty good system to quickly find that latest guideline to help you manage the ever changing medical needs of your patient. When was the last time, however, that you truly invested in learning ways to better connect with your patients on an emotional level that allowed you to navigate more easily through difficult conversations , motivationally interview your patients and demonstrate improved healthcare outcomes for your patients? In this conference we will highlight some updates in acute care medicine and we will delve into how to better manage difficult conversations around loaded topics like substance use, intimate partner violence, and mental health. In addition, we will introduce you to the cutting edge new field of Sex and Gender Based Medicine in which we will discuss how our biological sex and gender affects our physiology, pathophysiology and our response to different drugs and therapies. Studying men and women side by side allows us to optimize the care of both sexes. We hope you are able to join us for this definitely unique CME opportunity! Topics:

Ports of Call

Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Intracoastal Waterway and harbor at Fort Lauderdale
Often called the 'Venice of America,' Fort Lauderdale offers a surprisingly sophisticated and relaxed alternative to its more frenetic neighbors. The city's identity is defined by the 165 miles of inland waterways that weave through it, and the best way to appreciate this is from the water itself. We highly recommend hopping on the Water Taxi for a leisurely tour; it’s not just transportation, but an experience, offering front-row views of stunning mansions, mega-yachts, and lush tropical landscaping.

For a taste of the city's vibrant heart, head to Las Olas Boulevard. This is the city's elegant main artery, lined with independent boutiques, intriguing art galleries, and a fantastic selection of restaurants, from casual sidewalk cafes to upscale dining rooms perfect for a memorable meal. It’s an ideal place for a sophisticated stroll and some people-watching.

Of course, the beach is a major draw. The beautifully redesigned Fort Lauderdale Beach offers wide stretches of clean sand, a palm-fringed promenade, and a more laid-back atmosphere than you might expect.

If you have a bit more time and an adventurous spirit, the Florida Everglades are just a short drive away. An airboat tour through this unique 'River of Grass' is an unforgettable experience, offering a glimpse into a wild ecosystem teeming with alligators, wading birds, and other wildlife. It’s an accessible yet authentic taste of natural Florida that provides a perfect contrast to the city's polished charm.

Key West, Florida

Key West is where the American road ends and a Caribbean-bohemian spirit takes over. Your ship docks just steps from Old Town, making this one of the most accessible and walkable ports you will encounter. The island’s compact nature allows for a full day of exploration without feeling rushed.

The literary and historical weight here is undeniable. The Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum is a genuine highlight, not just for the famous six-toed cats, but for the tangible connection to the author's life and work in his preserved studio. A short walk away, the Harry S. Truman Little White House offers a fascinating look into presidential history and the pressures of the Cold War era. For a more tranquil experience, the Audubon House & Tropical Gardens provides a serene escape with its beautiful 19th-century architecture and lush, shaded grounds.

For a taste of the island's famous energy, a stroll down Duval Street is essential. While it can be boisterous, it’s also lined with historic bars like Sloppy Joe's, eclectic art galleries, and unique shops. No visit is complete without sampling authentic Key Lime Pie; we recommend the classic tart version from Kermit's West Key Lime Shoppe. For lunch, consider the quirky courtyard of Blue Heaven, where chickens and cats roam freely. Key West offers a rich, character-filled day that perfectly balances history, culture, and laid-back island charm.

At Sea - Cruising

Puerto Costa Maya, Mexico

Costa Maya functions primarily as a modern logistics hub rather than a historic destination. The port facility itself is a clean, self-contained tourism village featuring pools and duty-free shopping—convenient, but essentially a manufactured environment. To engage with the authentic Yucatán, we strongly advise venturing beyond the port gates.

A short taxi or shuttle ride leads to Mahahual, a neighboring fishing village that offers a genuine slice of coastal Mexican life. Here, a pedestrian malecón runs parallel to the water, lined with unpretentious beach clubs and local eateries serving fresh seafood. It provides a relaxed, low-stress beach day far superior to the crowded pool decks back at the ship.

Culturally, Costa Maya is the strategic access point for the Chacchoben Mayan ruins. Unlike the arduous travel required for Chichén Itzá, Chacchoben is accessible via a moderate drive, offering a fascinating, less-crowded introduction to ancient architecture set within a jungle teeming with wildlife. Alternatively, nature enthusiasts should consider the journey to Lake Bacalar. Known as the "Lagoon of Seven Colors," this freshwater marvel offers stunning turquoise waters and a tranquil atmosphere distinct from the ocean coast. Whether you choose the history of the ruins, the local flavor of Mahahual, or the natural beauty of Bacalar, the true value of this stop is found outside the immediate port complex.

Cozumel, Mexico

Cozumel, Mexico
Cozumel requires a strategic approach to bypass the commercial density of the immediate port area and access the island’s genuine natural splendor. As the gateway to the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef—the second-largest reef system in the world—the island’s primary allure lies beneath the surface. For divers and snorkelers, the drift dives at Palancar and Colombia reefs offer exceptional visibility and vibrant marine life. For a land-based alternative that avoids the masses, we recommend renting a jeep to explore the 'Wild Side' (the uninhabited east coast). This rugged shoreline offers a serene escape dotted with small, open-air reggae bars and crashing waves, providing a stark, beautiful contrast to the busy west coast.
Cozumel, Mexico


A critical note regarding Mayan history: While the famous mainland sites of Tulum and Coba are spectacular, visiting them requires a 45-minute ferry to Playa del Carmen followed by a bus ride. This logistical commitment consumes your entire day and introduces transit stress. Unless these specific sites are non-negotiable, we advise remaining on the island. You can visit the smaller, on-island ruins of San Gervasio to satisfy historical curiosity without the risk of missing the ship.

If your goal is relaxation, Cozumel’s beach clubs are highly developed, ranging from high-energy all-inclusives to sophisticated, quiet retreats where the focus is on service and tranquility. When dining in the main town of San Miguel, avoid the waterfront tourist strip. Instead, walk three to four blocks inland to find authentic family-run cantinas serving excellent cochinita pibil and fresh ceviche at a fraction of the tourist prices. Cozumel is a polished tourism machine, but by focusing on the reef, the east coast, or a high-end beach club, you can curate a sophisticated and restorative experience.

Family, ShoreX, shore excursions, shore side activities, parents, children, kids, teens, Cayman Islands, Celebrity, Daytime, Family, Guide, Personal, Stingrays, Summer, Two People, george town, grand cayman, holding stingray, swimming, lifestyle imagery
Grand Cayman offers a distinctly polished version of the Caribbean. As a major global financial hub, the island feels exceptionally safe, clean, and well-organized. However, logistical planning is essential here: this is a tender port. Your ship will anchor offshore, and ferrying to the pier takes time, so you must factor this transit into your schedule to maximize your day ashore.
Family, ShoreX, shore excursions, shore side activities, parents, children, kids, teens, Cayman Islands, Celebrity, Conch, Coral Reef, Daytime, Family, Personal, Snorkel, Snorkeling, Summer, Three People, george town, grand cayman, lifestyle imagery


The island’s reputation rests on two genuine natural wonders. The first is Seven Mile Beach, a magnificent stretch of coral sand and water with visibility that rivals a swimming pool. While it is no secret and can get crowded, the sheer quality of the beach justifies the hype. You can take a taxi to a public access point, but for a more comfortable experience, we recommend booking a day pass at a hotel or beach club in advance, as availability is often limited.

The second essential experience is Stingray City. Unlike many captive animal encounters, this is a natural sandbar located miles offshore where southern stingrays have gathered for generations. Standing in waist-deep, crystal-clear water while these graceful creatures glide around you is a surreal and memorable experience that feels authentic to the location.

Beyond the water, the Cayman Turtle Centre provides a strong conservation angle that is particularly engaging for families. The town of George Town itself is compact and modern. While it lacks the deep colonial history and architecture of ports like San Juan, it is a premier destination for duty-free luxury goods, particularly high-end watches and jewelry. For a taste of local flavor, skip the generic chain restaurants near the pier and find a local spot for fresh conch fritters or ceviche before tendering back to your ship.

Why Protect your Trip?

Whether you’re planning your next trip or you recently booked one, travel insurance can help smooth over many unexpected travel glitches—while putting your mind at ease, knowing you’re off the hook for covered expenses that could arise from them.

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can provide you benefits and professional support when a covered situation comes up before or during your trip. The following examples may qualify for benefits:

  • Cancelling your trip after unexpectedly becoming too sick to travel
  • Taking care of a sick or injured traveling companion
  • Having to end your trip early due to a family emergency
  • Dealing with a flight delay or cancellation
  • Needing to buy personal items if your luggage is lost or stolen
  • Missing your cruise departure after a covered flight delay

You also can contact our travel protection partner Allianz Global Assistance’s 24/7, award-winning customer service for on-the-go assistance with issues like a medical emergency, replacing your lost passport, or making reservations around the world. To be eligible for a time-sensitive waiver of pre-existing medical condition exclusions, purchase your travel insurance plan within 14 days of initial trip deposit (other purchase requirements and conditions apply). Specific plan benefits may vary. Please review your plan details for more information.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:

  • A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
  • Your parent or child requires hospitalization
  • You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
  • You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
  • A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

TRIP INTERRUPTION

Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:

  • You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
  • A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
  • A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable

TRAVEL DELAY

If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE

Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:

  • You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
  • You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
  • You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*

*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION

Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.

BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT

Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.

BAGGAGE DELAY

Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).

CHANGE FEE

Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.

24-HOUR ASSISTANCE

Provides around-the-clock support during your trip. Allianz Global Assistance’s staff of multilingual problem solvers can help you with medical, legal, and travel-related emergencies whenever they happen. Medical assistance may include, but is not limited to:

  • Medical triage with referrals to local prescreened medical providers
  • Ongoing medical monitoring
  • Payment guarantee
  • Emergency medical transportation

Additional services for travel-related emergencies can help with:

  • Missed connecting flights
  • Lost/stolen travel documents
  • Pre-trip information
  • Prescription replacements
