Objectifs et capacités de apprenant.e.s

Public health units rely on different groups of health-care workers to collectively support the health-care needs of individuals in their communities. In this project, students will connect with a participating local public health unit and conduct an informational survey to collect data on the different types of health-care workers that work in the unit. They will also identify challenges and develop recommendations for improvement.
