The Faces of Health Care

SCHEDULE of Events  

This conference is a dialogue regarding the health care professions and strategies to advocate for the health of the community. The medical students and nursing students of Loyola University Chicago and the students of Cristo Rey Jesuit High School (CRJHS) and the CRJHS community will share insights with each other in a variety of ways.

  • Cristo Rey students are creating essays and art work that describes their encounters with and perspectives on our health care system. Sixteen of these essays will be designated as scholarship winning work and will be featured at the conference.

  • Loyola medical and nursing students are working with CRJHS students to develop a health fair for the CRJHS community. This will directly serve the health of the community and provide practical experience and insight into the health professions for the participating students.

  • Two keynote addresses will discuss the role of the medical and health care professions as servant leaders of the community.

  • Break out sessions will help participants develop a variety of advocacy skills.
