Through a comprehensive analysis of existing literature, this review highlights the benefits of ongoing education for healthcare professionals. The findings suggest that CME programs lead to improved knowledge retention, enhanced clinical skills, and increased confidence among healthcare providers. Moreover, CME has been shown to positively influence patient outcomes, leading to better quality of care and improved patient satisfaction. The review also discusses the challenges associated with implementing effective CME programs, such as time constraints, resource limitations, and varying learning preferences among healthcare professionals.
