Clinical Experiences
|
Students have clinical practice
experiences under the guidance of
qualified faculty in a wide variety of
health care facilities in the Metro
Atlanta Area such as hospitals, health
departments, nurse managed clinics,
schools, homes, and community centers.
Clinical practice begins in the first
semester, is a significant part of each
succeeding semester, and culminates in an
intense practicum. All students have
clinical practice in both hospital-based
and community-based care settings and
provide care to adults, the aged,
children, mothers and infants, the
mentally or emotionally ill, families, and
communities.

Senior Innovative
Projects
|
All undergraduate students plan,
implement, and evaluate an innovative
community-based senior project. Recognized
internationally as a creative teaching
strategy, the project provides a unique
opportunity for students to develop leadership
skills. The School provides some funding to
support the projects.
At the completion of the project, students
develop an abstract and a poster that
summarize their efforts. Students share the
results of their work at a Poster Day, which
is open to members of the University and the
Atlanta community.
