Competency VI

VI:  Social & Community Contexts of Healthcare

The competent graduate recognizes the diverse factors that influence the health of the individual and the community; identifies the sociocultural, familial, psychological, economic, environmental, legal, political and spiritual factors impacting health care and health care delivery; and responds to these factors by planning and advocating the appropriate course of action at both the individual and the community level. 

OMSL complements the competency-based curriculum, effectively providing a "learning laboratory" for achieving the community service component of Competency VI, the Social and Community Contexts of Health Care Competency.
