UW School of Nursing With their strengths in patient education and advocacy, nursing students have added another beneficial dimension to the MEDiC team. Nursing students, organized by Raandi Schmidt, coordinated all of MEDiC’s flu shot clinics this year. Once a month, women staying in the Single Women's Shelter are invited to participate in a MEDiC Health Talk, led by two UW Nursing Students. During the hour we have with the small group of women, we present information pertinent to their health and provide them with a safe forum to express their knowledge, concerns, or confusion regarding the topic. This year we covered topics such as Personal Hygiene, Breast and Cervical Cancer, Nutrition, and Stress and Relaxation. Some of the women may just come for the prizes of water bottles, gloves, or pedometers, but they leave having formed a stronger relationship with other women in the shelter and as better self-health advocates. My positive experiences with MEDiC through volunteering at clinics drew me to become more involved in not only representing the School of Nursing, but also learning more about the other health disciplines and how we might become better connected. I have never once regretted my council position with MEDiC as it has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my college years. Being privileged enough to be able to make a difference, progress, and learn with such a strong group of dedicated, smart, friendly individuals has been special to me. MEDiC feels like a family to me. We are a team working together toward common goals and in the process reaping benefits we didn't even foresee. I look forward to the continued strength of this organization through new leaders and teams in the years to come.

UW School of Pharmacy At clinics, pharmacy students are given an opportunity to practice their interviewing skills while interacting with patients. Using their pharmaceutical expertise, pharmacy students help increase other health profession students’ knowledge of medications prescribed to patients. Interdisciplinary Care MEDiC offered me and many other pharmacy students the opportunity to be able to help the Madison community, interact with other health profession students, learn practical clinical information, and apply the knowledge we learned in classes. Volunteering with MEDiC has been an enjoyable and insightful experience. It has been a great honor to serve on the MEDiC council. 19 Amanda Herder, Pharmacy Volunteer Coordinator UW School of Pharmacy 2012
