Healthcare In The European Union<\/h2>\n<p class=\"margin-bottom-1halfr small\"><em>Contributed by Jennifer Yoohanna<\/em><\/p>\n<p id=\"5e7a\" class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--h3\">In August of 2014, the Global Medicine Program established its first study abroad course in the European Union, made pos\u00adsible through a partnership with the University of Southern Den\u00admark Faculty of Health Sciences. The \u201cMEDS 557: Clinical Medicine and Healthcare Dynamics in Denmark\u201d course launched an experiential study of a Scandinavian system, which is of\u00adten praised as a model for universal healthcare.<\/p>\n<p id=\"b26e\" class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\">Over the course of the 12-day trip, 11 students traveled to both Copenhagen and Odense, Denmark, in addition to a weekend excursion to Berlin, Germany, to have a better understanding of European culture and an in-depth look at a publically funded health\u00ad care system. In the Danish capital of Copenhagen, students were able to engross themselves in the Danish culture, walking through the city and drifting along the canals in what has been proudly evaluated \u2018The World\u2019s Happiest Country\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Once in Odense, our partner in\u00adstitution welcomed the team with\u00adout reservation, completely open to questions and discussion of their healthcare system and Danish culture\u00a0. Students heard from esteemed lecturers on topics rang\u00ading from epidemiology of disease, research via registries, health economy, healthcare system and financ\u00ading, managed care of cancer, and elderly, maternal and primary care. Beyond the lectures, students were given the opportunity to visit hospital and community health sites, including: the Southern Denmark Regional Emergency Department, Nuclear Medicine and Radiation Therapy Unit, a nursing home, an innovative sports facility, a mater\u00adnity ward, a psychiatric ward, and a General Practice \u201cGP\u201d Clinic.<\/p>\n<p>The course in Denmark has allowed the Global Medicine Pro\u00adgram to venture into another part of the world, creating a cohort of students more understanding of the positive outcomes as well as the struggles surrounding an exclu\u00adsively publicly funded system. In the Summer 2014 Global Citizen\u00adship Roundtable, it was fascinating to hear student ambassadors pres\u00adent their observations and lessons from both Denmark and Taiwan, two countries utilizing univer\u00adsal healthcare systems, each with unique cultural considerations af\u00adfecting the system. Denmark was a necessary addition to the Global Medicine study abroad curriculum and the USC Global Medicine Program looks forward to return\u00ading to Odense in mid-August 2015 and welcoming health profession\u00adal students from the University of Southern Denmark to Los Angeles in late-August 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":0,"parent":86,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-90","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.5 (Yoast SEO v27.5) -
