Brad Zebrack and Debra Mattison are Breaking Down Silos

SSW is collaborating on a new course to break down the silos in the education of healthcare workers to optimize patient care. The schools of Dentistry, Medicine, Nursing, Social Work, and College of Pharmacy are launching an innovative course titled Team-Based Clinical Decision Making. The winter 2015 course is the first of its kind at U-M and may be one of the largest semester-long inter-professional education course in the country. SSW's Associate Professor Brad Zebrack and lecturer Debra K. Mattison are participating in teaching the course, along with faculty from each of the participating schools.
