rounds
Doctor's daily visits
Rounds covers a lot of ground as both noun and verb.
A round is something circular or spherical, or a complete cycle or series: a round of drinks, a round of golf, rounds of ammunition.
Medical staff make rounds when they visit patients in sequence.
The verb means to make round, to go around something, or to complete: We rounded the corner.
To round up or round down is to adjust a number to a convenient figure.
If you round on someone, you turn and confront them sharply.
