There was a time when, quite simply, the doors were closed.

People with chronic illness didn’t have the chance to get a college education. Whether their illnesses were too difficult to manage, or colleges themselves lacked the proper environment and services, those struggling with their physical health also often found themselves denied the opportunity to thrive intellectually.

It is a tremendous credit to the nation’s academic community (not to mention its health-care community) that so much has changed. People with conditions ranging from diabetes and heart disease to cancer and MS now have far greater opportunity to enrich their lives in the classroom.

But that opportunity is created only through significant hard work. From administrators to clinicians to faculty, those who serve students in need face substantial challenges.

Learn essential strategies for meeting those challenges in this new online seminar. Managing Students With Chronic Illness: In and Outside the Classroom is an insight-filled, 90-minute presentation led by author, clinician and CEO Patricia Fennell.

Special FREE book offer for early purchasers! See below …

In this audio seminar, you’ll discover the differences between students with chronic conditions and acute conditions, and learn about their different service needs. You’ll review the legal requirements for serving chronically ill students, and the basic principles for identifying and providing needed services.

You’ll also hear about a four-phase treatment model developed by the presenter that will help you understand and respond to the needs of students in key stages of illness:
• Crisis
• Stabilization
• Resolution
• Integration

You’ll gain perspective on the issues from an administrative standpoint – looking at how to create and sustain responsible policy. You’ll gain perspective from a clinical standpoint – getting ideas on how to implement improved service. And you’ll gain perspective from a pedagogical standpoint – reviewing guidelines for faculty on making reasonable accommodations for students.
