By exploring various chronic illnesses and their associated physical, psychological, and functional impacts, students will develop skills to promote healthy behaviors, enhance coping mechanisms, and improve quality of life for individuals living with chronic illness. Students will be introduced to strategies to promote healthy behaviors, positive coping responses, and complete assignments that demonstrate how to apply them.
