Chelsey was the only CLS student in attendance and sparked the interest of the other student-run multi-disciplinary clinics to include the clinical laboratory science students in their interdisciplinary approach.<\/p>\n<p>Following is an excerpt from Chelsey and Alex\u2019s abstract:<\/p>\n<p>Our presentation is important because a student-run diabetes clinic that includes an interdisciplinary team is very unique. It is not just that multiple disciplines are available at the clinic, but they are all encouraged to work together to provide patient care to the underserved and un-insured population of North Omaha. Additionally, the epidemic of diabetes, which is especially prevalent in underserved populations, makes GOODLIFE, and clinics like it, a necessity. We have a very unique approach to patient care at GOODLIFE and hope to help other institutions design their own problem-focused interdisciplinary student- run clinics.<\/p>\n<p>The SHARING student-run clinics at UNMC incorporate CLS students in their multi-disciplinary approach and model the vision of the future \u201chealth care team.\u201d The clinics focus on each health profession\u2019s scope of practice. The CLS student volunteers offer their expertise and knowledge of laboratory testing to the other health care professionals and patients.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chelsey Jansen, a clinical laboratory science (CLS) student, attended the Society\u00a0of\u00a0Student-Run\u00a0Free\u00a0Clinics\u00a02011\u00a0International\u00a0Conference to present, \u201cA Day in the Life of a GOODLIFE Patient.\u201d GOODLIFE Clinic is a SHARING Clinic dedicated to diabetic patients in the Omaha area.
