Competition emphasizes importance of interprofessional experiences

MUSC and Creating Collaborative Care’s fourth annual Clarion (Clinician
Administrator Relationship Improvement Organization) Interprofessional
Case Competition brought students together to delve into a case study
of a sentinel event to find root cause analysis and provide
recommendations.
The objective of Clarion is to broaden the educational experience of
health care students through interprofessional interaction as well as
raise awareness of each profession to increase patient health outcomes.

Student Government Association planned the competition. The Student

the event.
