Geriatric Health |
Our community space is a place for informal education, networking, and activities surrounding health issues that face the elderly. This SAC will provide informational resources on scholarships, internships, grants, and conferences related to geriatric health. It will house books and articles on geriatric health. The SAC will host workshops and informal lectures on geriatric health topics. And provide opportunities for service learning and volunteer work with elders in the local community. (This SAC is a place not only for those who will specialize in the care of older adults, but also for those students who anticipate working with an adult population in another specialty that will include older adults.) |

Fitness/Wellness |
Our community provides fitness and wellness tips; weekly fitness classes; monthly presentations, lecturers, or hands-on lab opportunities. We aim to raise and broaden the awareness in the areas of sports medicine, fitness, and wellness for our fellow students, as well as helping them stay fit while being involved in an interdisciplinary group on campus. These same ideas and skills can then be used with our future patient populations. |
