Educating Future Clinicians
Making a Committment to the Future Care of People with Disabilities
Research indicates that people living with disabilities face greater difficulty obtaining primary health care and chronic illness screening than their counterparts without disabilities. To help overcome this disparity, Inglis maintains academic partnerships with many Philadelphia-area colleges and universities to train health care professionals. During internships and clinical rotations at Inglis House, students learn how to better communicate, care for and advocate for people living with disabilities.
Thank you to our academic partners for recognizing the importance of disability-competent care and for joining with us to sensitize the next generation of health care providers to the needs of people living with disabilities.
