Description

This course is focused on evidence-based practice models for healthcare
practitioners. The goal of this course is to provide information on the
overall enhancement and maintenance of psychosocial functioning of
individuals, families, and small groups. This course presents current and
contemporary material that is application oriented. The overall goal of
the course is to help students develop beginning level knowledge and
skills related to the special topic area. The course reinforces the person-
in-situation perspective, which is essential to health services work
practice. Evidence-based practitioners acknowledge and respect diversity
in all forms of practice. Diversity is expressed as differences among
individuals, groups, and populations (age, class, culture, disability,
gender, political ideology, race, religion, sexual orientation). An emphasis
on junior year pre-practicum placements in various trauma-focused
organizations around the surrounding Boston area.
