Ambulatory neurology at Carilion is contained within Riverside 3, a modern clinic space adjacent to the medical school and research institute, and a five-minute walk from CRMH. Riverside 3 contains a dining facility, faculty/staff kitchen, pharmacy, laboratory facilities, an imaging suite, conference rooms, locker rooms with showers and dedicated office space for residents. Examination rooms are equipped with standard medical resources, including ophthalmoscopes, equipment for electromyography and computers with the capacity to view imaging studies.
Conference rooms and lecture halls are present at all clinical sites (CRMH, the Salem VAMC and Riverside 3). In each case, these facilities include computers/projection monitors for on-screen presentations. Writing boards are also available for brainstorming, formulating clinical cases and similar purposes. Some lecture halls at CRMH offer two-way video streaming to other Carilion sites, allowing for real-time interaction between a geographically remote audience and lecturer.
