Program Overview

The Be|Well QEP Initiative

The Be|Well QEP initiative is comprised of three student learning outcomes integrated in a curricular and co-curricular manner across the academic programs at HSC. These outcomes are designed to run parallel to one another to integrate and reinforce well-being concepts.

Student Learning Outcomes

Through the QEP, well-being champions help students learn to identify concepts associated with well-being, emotional intelligence and resilience in the early phases. Students go on to create a stress management growth plan and learn to analyze their skills in stress management and improve them. By the end of their journey, learners use the HSC Well-Being Model domains as a guide to developing capacities for resilience to support their success in school and future professions.

Why Wellbeing?

Graduate work is a time of growth and learning. As with any endeavor, there are challenges and struggles and opportunities for personal and professional development. HSC seeks to prepare students to be future professionals, equipped with the skills needed to succeed and thrive in school and in their future careers.

The Quality Enhancement Plan is a five-year project focused on enhancing the learning environment creating a culture of health and wellbeing. HSC’s Quality Enhancement Plan was developed in response to campus-wide symptoms of the national problem of professional burnout in healthcare providers.  The overall goal is to create a culture that supports student wellbeing through a positive educational environment.  Our intent is to teach students the concepts and skills that will enhance their wellbeing and consequently prepare them to successfully manage the challenges of their future work environment.
