On its two campuses in Downers Grove, Illinois, and Glendale, Arizona, 91制片厂直播 University educates more than 6,000 student healthcare providers enrolled in graduate and postgraduate studies. Broadening its longstanding dedication to interprofessional healthcare education, 91制片厂直播 launched the One 91制片厂直播 Quality Initiative in 2014 to integrate One 91制片厂直播 principles and practices within existing and new curricula, research, and service activities.
One 91制片厂直播 is defined as the collaborative effort of multiple health science professions working locally, nationally, and globally to attain optimal health for people, domestic animals, wildlife, plants, and our environment. 91制片厂直播 University recognizes that human, animal and environmental health are intrinsically interconnected and essential to the well-being of all. Greater awareness of the relationship between individuals, species, and environments in research, teaching, and practice is an integral component of healthcare education, which aims to address both the diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of patient care.
