The Health and Wellbeing Collaboration (HAWC) is an integral and innovative approach to the education of our future health care workforce at Macquarie University. The basis of the program is to impart a person-centred approach to healthcare and give the students the opportunity to experience healthcare through different people’s perspectives.
Becoming a HAWC volunteer is not a time consuming endeavour, it’s as simple as meeting a pair of students, 4-5 times, spread out over the second half of this year. Despite the small amount of time this costs for the volunteer, it is absolutely invaluable for the students education.
Attached is some more information about the program, some frequently asked questions and answers and an EOI form for ayone interested in volunteering.
