Palliative care improves quality of life for patients and families facing serious
or chronic illness, whatever the diagnosis or prognosis. It prevents and relieves
suffering by addressing pain as well as the physical, emotional, psycho-social and
spiritual problems associated with serious and chronic conditions. The demand for
palliative care is growing as we all need to learn how to respond to the challenges
of caring about and for loved ones suffering from serious and chronic illnesses.

Community Engaged Scholarship (CES) is centered on a mutually-beneficial collaboration
between the university and a community partner outside the academy. The purpose of
the collaboration is to bring together the specialized knowledge of the university
with the specialized knowledge of the community to generate new knowledge that is
applied to solve critical issues of interest to both. CES meets the needs of the community
partner as defined and expressed by the partner, with measurable outcomes. The collaborative
work is characterized by robust participation by both the university and community
partners and results are disseminated to all partners and beyond.

goal of the program is to foster student success by reducing social estrangement and
creating a university culture of positive participation and support.

best use of outcomes and assessment information.
