What types of courses will I take in the CARE curriculum?
The CARE curriculum includes fully integrated courses that will have learners immediately apply the information about oral healthcare to discussions, simulated experiences, and authentic patient care environments. See CARE Curriculum Timeline.
What are the CARE curriculum’s phases?
The CARE curriculum has four phases that have specific goals for all learners to achieve during their time at the HPU Workman School of Dental Medicine.
How will I be assessed in the CARE curriculum?
The CARE curriculum is focused on the growth of each learner to achieve a high standard of person-centered patient care. To accomplish this, learners will engage in frequent assessments intended to provide feedback to help learners grow as they move through the curriculum. The entire curriculum is a true pass/no pass system that emphasizes well-being and teamwork. Individuals will have opportunities to perform additional tasks for honors designations. All learners will be expected to demonstrate their ability to perform core tasks (i.e., Entrustable Professional Activities) through simulated and authentic patient care encounters to be eligible for graduation.
