At ChristianaCare, interns are benefitting from diverse work environments, including a concussion clinic and a program for patients suffering long-term effects of COVID-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also are observing the new \u201cHospital at Home\u201d program, an innovative initiative which offers acute care in patients\u2019 homes, blending virtual and in-person care provided by a team of physicians, nurse practitioners, registered nurses, and other healthcare providers. Virtual technology and health equipment brought into the patient\u2019s home ensure round-the-clock monitoring and care that is much like a traditional hospital setting, without the expense or inconvenience of a hospital stay.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-image4144_453abb-31 .kb-image-has-overlay:after{opacity:0.3;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-image kb-image4144_453abb-31\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.test.wilmu.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/DrAngelaHerman-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"kb-img wp-image-16129\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.wilmu.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/DrAngelaHerman-1.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.wilmu.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/DrAngelaHerman-1-250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/blog.wilmu.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/DrAngelaHerman-1-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><figcaption><em>Dr. Angela Herman<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Angela Herman, Chair of Health Sciences in the College of Health Professions and Natural Sciences, says Wilmington University students benefit from the school\u2019s relationship with the health system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe partnership with ChristianaCare and our Health Sciences program has been truly a valuable addition to our students\u2019 educational experience.&nbsp; Students can work within one of the most advanced technological health care systems in our area as part of the Center for Virtual Health.
