UCOS promotes healthcare improvement in Cincinnati through a weekly clinic at St. Vincent de Paul along with other health courses and events.
The IHI Open School for Health Professions is an interprofessional educational community that gives students the skills to become change agents in health care improvement.
We’re talking about skills like quality improvement, patient safety, teamwork, leadership, and patient-centered care. Employers are looking for these skills, and patients expect providers to have them. Most schools, however, barely touch on these topics. Open School is here to help you fill that void.
Students in nursing, health administration, medicine, pharmacy, dentistry, nutrition, dietetics, physical therapy, social work, policy, and other health professions can think of the IHI Open School as their “other school” — an educational community that’s free and open no matter where they are.
UC Open School has no applications, no admissions requirements, and no due dates. Come join us at a monthly meeting, lunch talk, or at the clinic every Saturday morning to find out more!
