Community Health Fairs

Each year Georgia Southern University students and faculty from various disciplines in the Waters College of Health Professions help bridge wellness and the community by organizing community health fairs at various locations in Chatham County. Explore past health fairs.

MLS/Sports Medicine Collaboration

Since 2017, the Sports Medicine program and Medical Laboratory Science program have worked together to ensure students have the skills necessary to successfully conduct their research. In January 2020, Charlotte Bates and Amy Chall of the Medical Laboratory Science program along with Greg Grosicki of the Sports Medicine program continued this collaboration. Seven sports medicine graduate students attended a training session where three medical laboratory science students, assisted by Bates and Chall, demonstrated how to analyze blood serum for various biochemical markers.

Clinical Internship/Practicum Experience Update

Many of the clinical programs offered by the Waters College of Health Professions require a clinical internship or practicum experience to fulfill degree requirements.  Pursuant to the University's legal agreements, participants in clinical experiences are required to abide by the workplace rules of the clinical site. The University is aware of recent federal requirements that would mandate vaccination against COVID-19 for those working in certain settings, including health care. At this time, we expect that these new requirements may significantly impact our ability to locate a placement for students who remain unvaccinated. As always, WCHP will continue to make every effort to place students at clinical sites. However, please be aware that we may be unable to locate a site to accept unvaccinated students, which may cause a delay or inability to progress and complete the program of study.
