Training Resource for Medical, Dental & Nursing Students

In response to the Surgeon General’s "A Call to Action to Improve the Health & Wellness of Persons with Disabilities," the US Office on Disability, in collaboration with the Department of Labor Office on Disability Employment Policy (ODEP), asked a National Work Group to identify high quality training materials that address the needs of patients with disabilities. The Work Group has compiled an Electronic Tool Kit, http://www.aucd.org/template/news.cfm?news_id=3194&id=17&utm_source=Family+Support+Network&utm_campaign=2d82365dc4-October_2008_Newsletter_2008&utm_medium=email, of pre-service curricular materials for use by medical, nursing & dental students.
