RiteCare Center receives monetary donation

June 26, 2023

Thanks to a monetary contribution in the amount of $400 from the Scottish Rite Masons, graduate students in the Communication Sciences and Disorders program will be able to create various personalized books to help medically fragile children communicate while hospitalized. The incorporation of language and literacy in the books will help to expand the child’s ability to communicate with his or her caregivers and medical staff by providing children with a tool that will allow them to point at various pictures in the book to express themselves. The funds received will be used to assist with the cost of supplies to create the books.

Clinical Internship/Practicum Experience Update

Many of the clinical programs offered by the Waters College of Health Professions require a clinical internship or practicum experience to fulfill degree requirements. Pursuant to the University's legal agreements, participants in clinical experiences are required to abide by the workplace rules of the clinical site. The University is aware of recent federal requirements that would mandate vaccination against COVID-19 for those working in certain settings, including health care. At this time, we expect that these new requirements may significantly impact our ability to locate a placement for students who remain unvaccinated. As always, WCHP will continue to make every effort to place students at clinical sites. However, please be aware that we may be unable to locate a site to accept unvaccinated students, which may cause a delay or inability to progress and complete the program of study.
