@HLTH 370 - Health Coaches II

2 Credit(s)

Students will learn methods for medical assessment and will develop their own ability to undertake comprehensive bio-psycho-social insights for promoting positive health behaviors in others. These methods will include ethically-informed practices for helping patients toward better adherence of medical plans, avoidance of at-risk behaviors, assistance in navigating the healthcare system and understanding of personal health. Students will have the opportunity to meet one on one with patients discharged from Canton Potsdam Hospital, under the supervision of the Health Care Team. Satisfactory completion of the Health Coaches I Seminar is required for participation in Health Coaches II; however, it does not guarantee selection.
