Learning Together

The vision for the facility is to offer students who are training to be healthcare professionals 鈥� including dentists, physicians, dental hygienists, physician assistants, nurses, pharmacists, occupational therapists, registered dietitian nutritionists, social workers and others 鈥� the chance to learn and work together to provide holistic, patient-centered care. This unique learning experience will prepare students for success as thoughtful, collaborative practitioners across numerous health care specialties.

Collaborative Care

Patients will be able to access a variety of dental, medical and wellness services in one convenient location.

The clinic will include eight medical exam rooms, two medical procedure rooms, 30 dental operatories, an Ambulatory Surgery Center with two operating rooms, four enclosed sensory flexible medical/dental procedure rooms and a dedicated sensory waiting area for patients with intellectual, developmental and acquired disabilities with sensory sensitivity.
