* Cultural Awareness - Brown-Bag Lunch NEW!

Unlike people, illness, disease, and injury don't discriminate based upon race, culture, or ethnic background. Whether you're a patient or a health care employee you'll want to know how culture affects medical interactions. This self-paced e-Course explores the interactions between health care professionals and patients, focusing on the effects of culture on health care interactions.

Join us for group discussions that augment the online learning portion of the course. Brown-bag lunch discussions are held weekly. Discussions center around videos that highlight cultural interactions in a healthcare setting. The material presented in this course will help you broaden your own understanding of the world in which we live.
