Beyond The Covid-19 Pandemic: The Importance Of Social Determinants Of Health In Educating Healthcare Leaders, Tashuna Albritton, Miguel Muñoz-Laboy, Umadevi Yokeeswaran, Marlene Camacho-Rivera

Publications and Research

As scholars of color and educators in the health professions, we are compelled to advocate for the inclusion of the study of health disparities and social determinants of health (SDOH) throughout higher education to understand, analyze, and effectively respond to healthcare access disparities, including COVID-19 disparities, in Black and Latinx communities across the United States. In addition to our identities and lived experiences, healthcare access disparities and their root causes are woven throughout the courses that we teach in the departments of social medicine, social work, and social and behavioral sciences.

Write Night: How A Writing Accountability Group (Wag) Supports Scholarly Work And Connection At A Community Residency Program, Carrie B Rubenstein, Claire Thomson, Miranda D Lu, Anna Mcdonald, Karl Dietrich

All Poster Presentations

Purpose: The purpose of this innovative endeavor was to improve scholarly output and collaboration at the Swedish First Hill Family Medicine residency by establishing a Writing Accountability Group (WAG).

Background: While scholarly work during residency training is both required by the ACGME and important for producing physician leaders, many community-based residency programs have no formal structure to support such work and promote collaboration. At our program, faculty worked in functional silos and found it difficult to consistently involve residents in scholarly projects. WAGs have been studied in a variety of settings as a tool to increase scholarly output, improve writing …

Storytelling Of Interprofessional Teamwork, Jessica Lee, Ashley Ronzo, Kendall Dolan, Daniel Bergeron

CECE Spring Poster Session 2022

We are an interprofessional team that worked together to discuss and treat a patient suffering from Long COVID-19. At the beginning, we came in with assumptions of other professions and carried our biases into the group. However, as we witnessed these professions interact with our Long COVID-19 patient, Amanda, our views and biases began to change. We were privileged to see how interprofessional teams interact and come together for the betterment of our patient.

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder Awareness, Stephanie Burns, Danielle Clymer

CECE Spring Poster Session 2022

We are an interprofessional team that worked together to educate and bring awareness to FASD. There are a lot of misconceptions regarding this disorder. After learning that there are no medical trainings for physicians regarding diagnosing which results in a lack of therapy, we were eager to bring awareness to this serious matter.

Clinical Skills Development In The Virtual Learning Environment: Adapting To A New World, Erini S. Serag-Bolos, Liza Barbarello Andrews, Jennifer Beall, Kelly A. Lempicki, Aimon C. Miranda, Carol Motycka, Chelsea Phillips Renfro, Brittany L. Riley, Chasity M. Shelton, Deepti Vyas, Kimberly Won

Pharmacy Faculty Books and Book Chapters

The rapid transition to distance learning in response to the unexpected SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 pandemic led to disruption of clinical skills development, which are typically conducted face-to-face. Consequently, faculty adapted their courses, using a multitude of active learning modalities, to meet student learning objectives in the didactic and experiential settings. Strategies and considerations to implement innovative delivery methods and address potential challenges are elucidated. Furthermore, integration of a layered learning approach may allow for more broad perspectives and allow additional interactions and feedback, which is especially necessary in the virtual environment.

Preparing For Professional Programs: Strategies And Practices For Pre-Medical Education, April Elayne Curry

Theses and Dissertations

This study examines the preparation process for students in professional programs and highlights strategies and practices for pre-medical education. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted elements of the healthcare system that explore how critical physicians are that can lead with both a global perspective and with compassionate patient care. In order to understand the competencies required for this leadership process, it is critical to consider the medical school lifecycle from the undergraduate education to residency. Working from the admissions process, we consider what competencies are required for medical school success and physician preparedness and we use that to shape a solid …

Cross-Mentorship: A Unique Lens Into The Realities And Challenges Of Diversity In Surgery., Marina Affi Koprowski, Karen J Dickinson, Crystal N Johnson-Mann, Martha Godfrey, Emilia J Diego, Marie Crandall, Kevin Y. Pei Md, Mhsed

Other Specialties

Mentorship in surgery is a perennial topic of interest, as successful mentoring relationships are associated with improved career satisfaction, academic promotion, research productivity, and overall well-being. While it is true that certain minority groups in surgery find great personal and professional benefit in receiving and providing mentorship among “their own” (ie, a female academic surgeon mentoring a female resident), it is important to recognize that many mentoring relationships, whether intentionally or otherwise, extend across gender, sexuality, generations, race, ethnicity, and other differences. Lived examples of these include an Asian man hailing from the Northeast with no children mentoring a White …

A Comparison Of Factors That Impact Retention Of Nursing Students With And Without Military Experience: A Mixed Method Study, Janice E. Hawkins, Karen Higgins, Jamela Martin, Lynn Wiles, Ingrid Mahoney, Robert Hawkins, Beth Tremblay

Ellmer School of Nursing Faculty Publications

Military veteran students have unique characteristics and challenges that influence their academic success. The factors impacting retention of nursing students with prior military experience may differ from students with no military experience. This mixed methods study used an anonymous survey guided by Jeffreys' Nursing Undergraduate Retention and Success Model to identify factors that support or restrict prelicensure nursing program retention of military veteran students compared to students with no history of military service. Statistically significant differences between groups were detected for three factors including financial status, membership in nursing organizations or clubs, and financial aid and/or scholarship. There was a …
