UNMC's series of radio commercials for spring 2004 focus on UNMC’s education and outreach missions by highlighting the College of
Nursing’s Distance Learning Program, the College of Dentistry’s Dental
Day and the Goodlife Clinic that is operated by an interdisciplinary
team of students.
The Nursing commercial features Wendy Denman from Alda, Nebraska.
Wendy just graduated with her B.S.N. which she earned through the
College’s Distance Learning program. This program allows those who
already have an R.N. degree to earn their B.S.N. through online
courses. Stephanie Burge, CON faculty member in
Kearney, also comments on what this program means for these students
to remain working and still grow professionally.

The dentistry commercial features the college’s Dental Day during
which students, faculty and staff see hundreds of children from
communities across the state. These children have not had regular
access to dental care. Dental and dental hygiene students gain
invaluable experience providing care and an understanding of what it
means to give back to the community.

The Good Life clinic commercial features the student-run diabetes
clinic located at Baker Place. An interdisciplinary team of students
including pharmacy, nursing, medical students work together to develop
a care plan for the patients they see. They also find a way to guide
the patients to resources, such as prescription drugs they may require
to manage their condition.
