Keep coming across this phrase.. What does it mean?

From what I have been able to glean, that's a phrase that only applies to some centres. I am in Windsor, and we don't have "rounds." You meet with individuals and once you get a sign off from the social worker, nutritionist, and internist, then you are good to go. Other centres, you meet with everybody, then they have meetings where they sit down, discuss your case, and decide whether to refer you on. As I said, though, I didn't have to go through rounds, so I am not positive.

Thank you for explaining that. I am just starting out so after I find out what clinic I am at, I will be able to research if that is part of their process.
