UNE’s graduate student trip to Washington County as part of new Cultural Competency in Health Care course makes front page of 'Quoddy Tides'
The March 22nd issue of The Quoddy Tides featured a front page article about a group of UNE graduate students who traveled to Washington County for an experiential/cultural immersion experience as part of a new course, Cultural Competency in Health Care. The aim of the course is to develop students’ awareness of cultural differences in specific communities in order to better serve them.
The article mentions that the graduate students were scheduled to meet with a group of Eastport seventh and eighth graders with the hope of sparking the children’s interest in the healthcare fields.
