First-Year Seminar: Navigating and Advocating for your Wellness.

Catalog description

In a time when healthcare is more complex than ever, we often focus on training healthcare providers to communicate effectively for patient safety. However, a crucial piece of the puzzle is missing: who is teaching the patients how to communicate effectively to ensure they receive the highest quality and safest care? Navigating and Advocating for Your Wellness is designed to fill this gap by empowering students with the skills and knowledge they need to successfully navigate the healthcare system and advocate for themselves and their loved ones. The course utilizes TeamSTEPPS strategies, widely recognized in healthcare for enhancing teamwork.
