Workshop

Broken Wings: Integrating Students with Disabilities Into Health Science Education Workshop Presentation

Presenter: Terry Chase, ND, MA, RN, CEIP-Ed 

Health science faculty and clinicians are often unprepared for the challenges of addressing the needs of students with disabilities (SWD) and are unsure how to adapt according to the expectations of the program.  As the number of students with disabilities increases the issues of access, adaptation, language, expectation come front and center.  This interactive session will address the specifics of disability providing participants tools for the educational settings and that disability or different ability can be the starting point for new and greater experience. In this highly interactive session, participants will have an opportunity to learn about physical disability, proper etiquette, language, and practice new ways of thinking to approach the challenges of SWDs. Dr. Terry Chase shares her lived experience as a student nurse with a disability who entered and completed the Doctor of Nursing degree (ND) at the University of Colorado. Watson’s Caring Science is the foundation of this healthcare providers’ education and practice.


On-Demand Access: June 3rd to September 3rd, 2023
