AHS 48000 Allied Health Capstone

This course is designed for students to assimilate and integrate knowledge and skills from their allied health and general education coursework through a capstone project.  Students will work with Lindenwood University SONAHS faculty to develop and plan the implementation and evaluation of a project to lead a change initiative aimed at improving health outcomes and/or allied health practice in the healthcare environment.  Elements of the course and project will emphasize healthcare professionalism, evidence based practice, safety and quality, health policy, management, and leadership in the transition to professional allied health practice in a transforming healthcare environment.  In addition, each student will complete a portfolio outlining professional growth throughout the program and include identification of goals for continued growth and lifelong learning.
