Course: HONR3310 Contemporary Issues in Healthcare
For their final project, students described and addressed real community-based healthcare concerns that relate to their Service-Learning experiences. Through a needs assessment, students identify the issues that impact a specific community based on the broad themes covered in class , i.e. health literacy, social determinants of health, cost, quality and access. Students research and examine identified issues to understand the reasons why they’re problematic for a specific patient population, local community, providers etc. Students describe the intervention/service they provided at their site and how they can measure the impact and sustainability of their proposed interventions.
