We had an impactful week in Memphis! Our Community Engagement Manager, Sarah Kane, spent time cultivating meaningful partnerships and introducing students to healthcare career pathways!

🩺We kicked off with a tour of the University of Memphis College of Health Sciences — a future host site for TCWD’s Discovery Summit — and had the opportunity to learn about their expansive offerings of healthcare degrees and programs. We were grateful for the warm welcome from Richard J. Bloomer, Dean of the College of Health Sciences, and Dr. Shirley R. Brown, Clinical Associate Professor of the Healthcare Leadership Online Program, and MC Mullins, Assistant Director of Marketing and Communications.

✏️ We also attended our first Memphis-Area Home Education Association Expo, where we connected with homeschool students and families to share information about pathways to healthcare careers.

🔬We wrapped up the week at University of Tennessee Health Science Center, meeting with leadership, including Dr. Tara Lemoine, Medical/Executive Director of the Center for Healthcare Improvement and Patient Simulation (CHIPS - Center for Healthcare Improvement and Patient Simulation), and Aaron Haynes, Assistant Dean of Graduate Medical Education and TCWD Board Member. We were especially excited to tour the simulation lab ahead of the Simulation Day we’re hosting in partnership with UTHSC next month!

We are grateful to collaborate with educational institutions that share our commitment to strengthening the future of healthcare.
