executive summary Our 45 year history as a College of Health Professions has enabled us to mature and develop into one of the top Colleges of Health Professions in the country. Currently offering nine different academic degrees, we continue to have the largest student enrollment on campus and our reputation for educational excellence is well documented. Our commitment to excellence in clinical, professional and community service has expanded over the years with faculty, students and staff actively engaged in these critical areas of our mission. However, it is the area of research that has seen exponential growth over this last year. Recently, we have made significant strategic investments targeted at building research capacity within the College and establishing a national reputation for excellence in research. These investments have produced outstanding results over a short period of time and are documented in this report. This 2010-2011 annual report provides an in-depth review of the significant achievements across all areas of our mission and highlights the extraordinary accomplishments of our faculty, staff and students. This executive summary identifies the significant changes within the College over the last year and presents key accomplishments that characterize the College’s advancement over this past year.

Significant Changes: Educational Programs CLOSURE OF THE BACHELOR OF HEALTH SCIENCE PROGRAM The Bachelor of Health Sciences program was formally discontinued with the last class graduating in May 2011. The mission of this program was to enhance the education of health care providers in South Carolina who had one or two years of higher education by providing them with an opportunity to obtain a bachelor’s degree. While the quality of this program was outstanding, it no longer fit with the strategic focus of the College. In order to ensure the continuation of this type of program in the State, we
Executive Summary
have worked collaboratively with Coastal Carolina University (CCU) to transition a version of this program to their institution. At this time, CCU is awaiting final approval from the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education to offer a similar degree program. NEW EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES The inaugural class of the DHA-Interprofessional Studies track began their studies fall 2010 semester. This program is intended for healthcare clinical practitioners who desire an advanced degree in administration. The curriculum of the program includes topics such as leadership, strategy, policy, evidence-based decisionmaking, and interprofessional studies with the goal of improving patient quality of care and safety. Graduates of the program are expected to teach or lead quality improvement initiatives in the healthcare delivery system. The DHA-Information Systems and Leadership track recruitment was opened for fall 2011 admission. Students in this new track are practicing information systems specialists who either are in, or who seek to be in, positions that can influence adoption of the Institute of Medicine’s vision to promote the delivery of patientcentered care. The central themes of the curriculum are information systems practice; and building on the domains of change, leadership and health informatics.
Major Accomplishments for the College 20102011 STRATEGIC PLAN Faculty and staff collaboratively developed a new five year strategic plan for the College of Health Professions that incorporates critical elements of the new University Strategic Plan.

2011 Annual
Report
There was a 27% increase in the number of Grants and Contracts awarded to researchers in the College compared to FY 2010. The dollar value of the awards for FY 2011 totaled $6,088,407; up from $3,712,219 for FY 2010. This is a noteworthy 64% increase in grant funding compared to FY 2010 and is the largest amount of grant funding in the history of the College of Health Professions. The College celebrated the grand opening of the Center for Rehabilitation Research in Neurological Conditions in May 2011. This event provided the opportunity to showcase three new fully equipped state of the art research laboratories. More than one hundred people attended this celebration which showcased the cutting edge technologies available to our researchers that will enable them to engage in research targeted at improving the quality of life for individuals with neurological disorders.
Executive Summary
Dr. Paul Jacques, Interim Director of the Physician Assistant Studies Division, was awarded a $1.6 million dollar five year training grant from HRSA. The grant focuses on four programmatic initiatives: expanding the current oral health curriculum to include oral health assessments and fluoride varnish application with pre-school children, incorporating a three week course to promote physician assistant (PA) students’ transition from the classroom to the clinical phase of the program by learning and experiencing the complexities of how a rural healthcare facility functions, increasing the use of simulation technology within the PA curriculum, and continuing the highly successful PA academic fellowship which prepares physician assistants to make the transition from clinician to academician. Dr. Bonnie Martin-Harris, Director of the PhD program in Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, was recognized as the College of Health Professions Scholar of the Year. Dr. Lee Saunders, Department of Health Sciences and Research, was recognized as the College of Health Professions Developing Scholar of the Year. Drs. Bonnie Martin Harris and Heather Bonilha were the recipients of the 2010 Manuel Garcia Prize at the Dysphagia Research Society Eighteenth Annual Meeting, International Association of Logopedics and Phoniatrics (IALP). Ms. Alicia Sievert, Assistant Professor, Division of Cardiovascular Perfusion, was the 2011 winner of the 12th Annual Utley Award at the 31st Annual Cardiothoracic Research and Education Foundation (CREF) Conference. Dr. James Krause, Associate Dean for Research, received the 2011 National Association of Rehabilitation Research and Training Center’s award for the outstanding published article in the previous year. All funded projects from the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR) qualify (its annual budget exceeds $100 million) so the award is highly competitive. SERVICE Dr. Wanda Gonsalves, Division of Physician Assistant Studies, was presented the South Carolina Governor’s Volunteer Award by Governor Nikki Haley and
the South Carolina Association for Volunteer Administration in May 2011 at the S.C. State House. The award was to recognize the volunteer efforts associated with the MUSC Community Aid Relief Education Support (CARES) Clinic. CARES is an outreach clinic initiated in 2005 by Dr. Gonsalves to enhance the preclinical experience of medical, physical therapy, pharmacy, health administration, and physician assistant students while providing much needed health care to the uninsured population in the Tri-county (Berkley, Charleston, Dorchester) areas and beyond. College of Health Professions’ staff provided the leadership and coordinated a joint faculty/staff effort to raise more than $2,500 in school supplies for MurrayLaSaine Elementary School. This Title 1 school has more than 90 percent of its population qualifying for free or reduced lunches. The parents of these children are not required to buy school supplies; therefore, teachers are tasked with getting classroom supplies on a meager budget. The money raised by the College went towards educational supplies requested by teachers in the school. Another staff initiated service activity resulted in approximately $274 to help provide meals for the families staying at the local Ronald McDonald House. Dr. Patty Coker-Bolt was recognized with the 2010 College of Health Professions Faculty Service Award. In addition, she received the 2011 Patterson Award for community volunteerism at the AOTA conference in Philadelphia. The Patterson Award is for occupational therapists who demonstrate commitment, excellence and/or innovation in providing communitybased volunteer services using occupational therapy skills. The award is co-sponsored by The Patterson Foundation of St. Paul, Minnesota. In summary, the College of Health Professions has made significant progress toward our vision of national distinction in health professions’ education, research and service. Today, the College offers academic programs that are ranked nationally, and the College is considered one of the best in the country. The College of Health Professions educates talented and dynamic healthcare leaders of the future to serve the residents of South Carolina and beyond and we are emerging as leaders in health professions research.

The College enjoyed another successful graduation this year with 327 students earning their degrees. One of the highlights of the graduation events was this year’s Commencement Speaker, Darius Rucker.

Interprofessional Education In concordance with the MUSC Creating Collaborative Care (C3) initiative, the College serves as a key leader for interprofessional education and its inclusion in our academic programs. Exposure to interprofessional education begins at college orientation with team training and experiential learning. All students take a required interprofessional course (IP 710 Transforming Health Care for the Future) that integrates them with students from the other MUSC colleges to explore and assess the complexities of current health care delivery. The course challenges students to work collaboratively in a hybrid learning context, using learning management systems and faceto-face engagement, to complete root cause analyses across several case-based conditions. Students generate creative responses that will improve safety and efficacy of systems of health care delivery. Many of our students go on to take a variety of university-wide interprofessional elective courses and others choose to complete an interprofessional fellowship, which is recognized at graduation and on their final transcript. (See student accomplishments section for a list of this year’s fellowship students) Engagement in interprofessional education requires dedication and innovation on the part of our faculty members, several of whom lead exciting health care service initiatives in the community and overseas. For example, under faculty guidance, occupational therapy and dental students provided a range of oral health care services to children with severe disabilities at Pattison’s Academy; physician assistants and others participated in Smiles for Life; and students from several professions provided health care services on a mission trip to Masindi, Uganda.

White Paper Summary SUMMIT ON COMMUNITY INTEGRATION OF THE TRAUMATICALLY INJURED WARRIOR AND NATIONAL ADVISORY BOARD MEETING Charleston, South Carolina, December 3-4, 2010 Spearheaded by Dr. Mark Sothmann (then MUSC Interim Vice President and Provost), this collaborative event brought together academicians from multiple disciplines, national and state elected officials as well as community leaders and non-profit organizations from across the country for a day-long Summit in Charleston, SC. The overarching topic centered on key initiatives to better help traumatically injured veterans transition into their communities. The Summit was held at Charleston Place and was sponsored generously by Force Protection and South Carolina Research Authority (SCRA). The Summit’s keynote speaker, Dr. Peach Taylor, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs, highlighted the progress the Military Health System has made in support of its wartime mission and in its continuum of care. The Summit then focused on the dominant
themes of Learning from the Past and Looking to the Future. Researchers from the Indiana-Ohio Center for Traumatic Amputation Rehabilitation Research reported on their nearly four years of research with over 450 Vietnam era veterans with warrelated amputation. Their informative findings were on effective coping strategies in building successful lives despite such life-long issues of pain, prosthetics use, comorbidities, and mental well-being (particularly post-traumatic stress disorder and depression). Such strategies included the critical role of the caregiver, community support services, adaptation, and education, among others. The dominant theme that emerged for future research and practice initiatives is centered on the concept of Resiliency, Reset, and Reintegration. Photo courtesy of Disabled American Veterans (DAV)

CHARLESTON MIRACLE LEAGUE
ADAPTIVE WATER SPORTS CLINICS
The mission of the Charleston Miracle League is to “make memories by providing a life-changing experience for children and adults with mental and physical challenges through a community supported baseball league.” Dr. Coker-Bolt shares the following accounts: “Our first games were played in the fall of 2004 and we now have over 70 youth players and 80 adult players with physical and mental disabilities. We play both spring and fall seasons and provide recreational activities between seasons (i.e. bowling, trip to Sting Rays game). For the last two years, we have provided an allexpense paid trip to a Braves game in Atlanta for players and their family members. Currently, the Charleston Miracle League has four CHP alumni on the Board of Directors, Dr. Aaron Embry (PT), Ms. Nicole LaRose (OT), Ms. Erin Carlton (PT), and myself. In addition, for the past two years, students from the Master in Health Administration program have completed projects and fundraising activities to benefit the league.”
Under the mentorship and guidance of Dr. Sara Kraft, Division of Physical Therapy, 30 physical therapy students and 15 occupational therapy students participated in the Adaptive Water Sports Clinics sponsored by Achieving Wheelchair Equality and Anchors Away. These clinics were held June 2011 at Lyon’s Beach, Monck Corner, SC, and are designed to introduce a variety of water sports to individuals with various disabilities including stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, and amputation. The students and Dr. Kraft were involved with fitting the 15 participants in their specially designed sit ski, performing water safety tests, helping launch skiers, and skillfully rescuing those who fell. This experience was meaningful and memorable for the participants and all the volunteers.

DEPARTMENT OF
health professions
Dr. Maralynne Mitcham, Department Chair
The Department of Health Professions is home to six programs, each of which is dedicated to educating students for entry into the health care delivery system. These programs rank highly among their peers across the country and five of the six programs rank in the top 40 Best Jobs in America according to the CNN Money Report, assuring that graduates are well sought after by health care employers nationwide. Each program has a strong applicant pool and a steadily increasing class size. All programs are nationally accredited, have high pass rates on national boards and certification examinations, and are competitive among their peer benchmark institutions.
While each of these programs is unique, the Department as a whole is committed to inter-professionalism as a key ingredient for successful team work in the service delivery context. Consequently, all programs have worked diligently to create innovative opportunities for students to learn with, from, and about each other. Several examples are highlighted in this report and demonstrate the commitment of faculty and the eagerness of students to participate. As students develop these skills at early stages of their professional preparation, they are better equipped to utilize them in a variety of practice environments and serve as role models for their colleagues. Ultimately, it is the health care recipient who is the direct beneficiary of coordinated care and good team work, and the one for whom improvement in health outcomes is critical. Funded by the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations, the Caring Professional Program offers interprofessional teams of students the opportunity to develop caring attitudes and empathic behaviors that promote the delivery of caring and compassionate service. Led by an interprofessional team of faculty members, the Caring Professionals Program has generated curricular change and embedded key learning activities into several curricula. DIVISION OF ANESTHESIA FOR NURSES This division offers a Master of Science in Nurse Anesthesia degree and is committed to excellence in the use of educational technology in the preparation of nurse anesthetists; students develop and hone their clinical skills with simulated mannequins prior to rotations. All students received support through traineeships from the Advanced Nurse Training Grant funded by Health Resources Services Administration. One of the highlights for the division this year was the success of the 24th Annual Continuing Education Conference in Charleston, SC. More than 200 certified nurse anesthetists were in attendance. Faculty have statewide and national prominence with Dr. Anthony Chipas, Division Director, serving as the President of the South Carolina Association of Nurse Anesthesia and the Editor of CRNA Today. DIVISION OF CARDIOVASCULAR PERFUSION This division offers a Bachelor of Science degree in Cardiovascular Perfusion (CVP) and takes pride in its innovation using technology for educating students, especially in its simulated operating room. The simulation lab allows students to supplement, practice and perfect their clinical skills prior to engagement with patients at MUSC and on clinical externships. Programming options in the technology allow the instructor to design individualized and nuanced settings which require students to quickly make sound decisions and respond to unexpected and changing conditions. Several CVP students have received prestigious, national awards this year and these are listed in the student accomplishments section. 22

Faculty members are engaged at the local and national levels contributing their expertise to a variety of community and professional organizations, in many cases working alongside students and providing pro bono services at Pattison’s Academy and the CARES Clinic to name two local examples. DIVISION OF PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT STUDIES
An interprofessional team of occupational therapy and dental students work on
oral health initiatives at Pattison’s Academy This division offers the Master of Science degree in Physician Assistant Studies (PA) and focuses its educational experiences for students on rural health care. Students learn through educational technology and direct experience how to provide assistance to physicians in a variety of settings. A survey of previous classes demonstrated that 50% of our PA graduates are working in primary care, thus they are well positioned to help address the healthcare issues of our country.
The graduates of the PA program continue to excel in multiple measures. Beginning in 2009, the U.S. News and World Report ranked MUSC PA among the top 20% of all PA programs in the nation. The Class of 2010, as a group, achieved a mean score of 614 on the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants Exam (as compared to the national average of 555). Six (of 57) earned 800 on this test, which is the highest possible score. The most significant accomplishment this year was the award of a $1.6 million, five-year grant from the Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA). In this grant cycle only nine grants of this type were awarded nationally and the CHP PA division received the largest. The grant, “Transitioning and Integrating Graduate Education in Rural Settings”, with Dr. Paul Jacques as principal investigator, focuses on four programmatic initiatives: expanding the current oral health curriculum to include oral health assessments and fluoride varnish application with pre-school children, incorporating a three week course to promote students’ transition from the classroom to the clinical phase of the program by learning and experiencing the complexities of how a rural healthcare facility functions, increasing the use of simulation technology within the curriculum, and continuing the highly successful PA academic fellowship which prepares physician assistants to make the transition from clinician to academician. DIVISION OF PHYSICAL THERAPY This division offers the Doctor of Physical Therapy degree and is committed to innovation and leadership in education with students and faculty making their mark at state and national levels. The educational program received 10 year accreditation status from the Commission on Accreditation of Physical Therapy Education and received very complementary feedback related to its students, facilities, faculty, clinical education processes, and support from the College and University administration. 24
2011 Annual
Report

Members of the team have worked with two graduate assistants who are enrolled in the PhD in Health and Rehabilitation Science program and each has contributed to multiple manuscripts. Our team has also mentored three medical students, four undergraduate students, and two graduate students as part of summer training opportunities. This effort has led to two manuscripts with students as lead investigators that have been published in refereed journals and several other manuscripts that are currently under review.
Publications Collectively the team has published 26 articles in refereed journals over the last year and has made 13 presentations at national and international conferences. As an indicator of the quality of this scholarship, the team received the 2011 National Association of Rehabilitation Research and Training Center’s award for the outstanding published article in the previous year. This was the second time Dr. Krause and his team received this award in the four years since its inception. All funded projects from NIDRR qualify (its annual budget exceeds $100 million) so the award is highly competitive. Additionally, at the annual meeting of the American Spinal Injury Association, one of the team’s platform presentations was awarded second best presentation of the conference. MEASUREMENTS AND TREATMENTS Dr. Steven Kautz leads a research team focusing on the assessment of movement dysfunction and impairments associated with neurologic conditions and the development of rehabilitation therapies intended to enhance motor functions and quality of life. Significant accomplishments for this line of research are in the Department of Health Sciences and Research section of this report. 26
2011 Annual
Report
DEPARTMENT OF
health sciences and research Building Research Infrastructure At the end of last academic year the Department of Health Sciences and Research had a newly recruited chair, Dr. Steven Kautz, three new assistant professors (Drs. Mark Bowden, Chris Gregory and Michelle Woodbury) and was beginning the process of integrating the new personnel. With the arrival of these four new investigators at the beginning of the 2010-2011 academic year, the Department began in earnest to work toward the College’s strategic goal of developing a nationally prominent research Dr. Steven Kautz, Department Chair program in neurorehabilitation. The focus of this program includes a number of projects developing reliable measurements of motor dysfunction associated with neurological conditions and effective therapies targeted at improving movement, function and quality of life. An emerging theme of the work in this area is the development of theory-based measurement frameworks that facilitate clinical decision-making and allow therapists to better choose the appropriate intervention for each individual. LABORATORIES The research program housed within the Department is based on the concept of shared common core resources, and thus the first step was to build the laboratory infrastructure needed for the new investigators to establish their research programs. Building three new laboratories proved to be a massive undertaking that would require nearly all of the academic year to complete. While the investigators had a vision of how they wanted the laboratories to function, there was a need for additional technological expertise to equip the laboratories with the necessary cutting edge technologies. Having established similar laboratories previously, Dr. Kautz knew it was crucial to find the right engineer to lead the development. The Department needed someone who could work equally well with both hardware and software – hardware to equip the laboratories and software that would need to be developed to establish all of the data processing pipelines and data analysis routines. Dr. Cameron Nott had all the skills and expertise we required. He received his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Florida while working with Dr. Kautz. In November 2010, he was hired as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Health Sciences and Research. Researchers from the College of Health Professions now have some of the most advanced rehabilitation research capabilities in the country available to them in the three new laboratories: the Locomotion Energetics and Assessment Laboratory, the Locomotor Rehabilitation Laboratory and the Upper Extremity Motor Function Laboratory. Locomotion Energetics and Assessment Laboratory

of persons with stroke and spinal cord injury and will then be related to clinically practical measurements that do not require high cost equipment. The laboratory also provides novel post processing capabilities to accommodate diverse application of the data to various studies. Cutting edge instrumentation in this 1379 square foot lab includes: a 12 camera motion capture system (PhaseSpace, Inc.); Instrumented Split Belt Treadmill (Bertec, Inc.) with incline; custom-made system for balance perturbation during treadmill walking; 16 channel EMG system; metabolic cart with integrated 12-lead ECG for measurement of physiologic performance; and a variety of other specialized instrumented measurement equipment. Locomotor Rehabilitation Laboratory The Locomotor Rehabilitation Laboratory (developed by Drs. Chris Gregory and Mark Bowden) is designed to offer a full range of locomotor interventions for those with impaired walking secondary to neurologic injury. The overall goal is to understand and improve clinical decision-making relative to locomotor interventions. This 808 square foot laboratory houses a ZeroG mobile body weight support system (only the 6th one installed nationally) designed to create a permissive environment for retraining walking ability over a treadmill (customized Woodway split-belt treadmill with integrated therapist seating) and also over level ground, environmental obstacles, up a set of several steps, or even on exercise equipment such as a Precor elliptical trainer. Additional equipment include a Shuttle System lower extremity exercise machine for training cardiovascular endurance as well as lower extremity strength and power; step activity monitors; accelerometric, gyroscopic and inertial sensor systems; and Gaitrite Platinum instrumented walkway for spatiotemporal measurements and M2 system for spatiotemporal measurement of mobility tasks other than straight line walking.

ing, refining and implementing cutting edge, theoretically grounded, rehabilitation interventions to improve functional upper extremity motor recovery after neurologic injury or disease. This 762 square foot lab includes one room for neuromechanical assessment and two separate rooms for treatment. It is equipped with Mr. Wally Pregnall shows off the PhaseSpace an 8 camera 3-D movement analysis system Motion Capture System (PhaseSpace, Inc.), a 16 Channel EMG System, two AMTI force plates for assessment of ground reaction forces during standing reach, ActiGraph Upper Extremity Activity Accelerometers, and Advanced Statistical Analysis Software Programs to perform Item Response Theory and Structural Equation Modeling. A final accomplishment related to the laboratories was the approval by the Department of Veteran Affairs for the research space of the CHP Research Building to be designated as official Veterans Administration (VA) space in a memorandum of understanding between MUSC, the local Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center, and Department of Veteran Affairs Central Research Office. This is a very important designation as it allows VA funded research to be performed in the laboratories and the VA is the second highest funder of rehabilitation research nationally. Five departmental faculty members have joint appointments with the VA and in the current year they held VA research awards totaling nearly $600,000. In addition, CHP investigators submitted new applications to the VA totaling nearly $7.3 million dollars in the current year. As NIH research funding continues to come under pressure from economic conditions, the Department and College have made a strategic decision to grow the VA research presence as a means to strengthening the research program.

It is expected that Clemson Bioengineering program, the Center for within the next year PhD students in Bioengineering Advanced Imaging Research and the South Carolina Clinical & Translational Research Institute. These are all will become involved in research in the Departmental laboratories. in addition to the above-mentioned VA rehabilitation Center for Advanced Imaging Research (CAIR) research partnership. Primary Stroke Center of Excellence The departmental research program has a very close collaboration with the JCAHO-certified Primary Stroke Center of Excellence directed by Robert Adams, MD, which is part of a large stroke and cerebrovascular disease program at MUSC. The neurorehabilitation research program and the Stroke Center of Excellence work together to facilitate recruitment of subjects; provide medical consultation for rehabilitation researchers; build databases containing behavioral, neuromechanical, neurological and outcomes information; and to perform innovative stroke rehabilitation research projects. Over the past year we have partnered to organize an MUSC-wide retreat for neurorehabilitation research in the fall, to coordinate the state-wide SCTR sponsored scientific retreat “Regeneration, Recovery, Rehabilitation, and Return of Function in Persons with Neurological Disease/ Injury,” and to establish a bi-weekly stroke rehabilitation research interest group meeting. One of the exciting new elements of the collaboration is the recruitment by the Stroke Center of Dr. Wuwei Feng, a stroke neurologist who will perform his stroke rehabilitation research in the Department of Health Sciences and Research’s laboratories. MUSC-Clemson Bioengineering program The departmental research program has built collaborations with the MUSC-Clemson Bioengineering program.
In addition, the departmental research program has built collaborations with the Center for Advanced Imaging Research (CAIR), which serves as a hub for generating and refining imaging studies, facilitating access to imaging machines, and assisting with image data analysis. Drs. Heather Bonilha and Chris Gregory have been leaders in the collaboration with CAIR and assisting other Departmental investigators to gain access to the cutting edge neuroimaging techniques available through CAIR. South Carolina Clinical and Translational Research Institute (SCTR) Further, the departmental research program was successful in increasing its interactions with the South Carolina Clinical and Translational Research Institute (SCTR), which is the large institutional NIH grant that supports translational research in the state of South Carolina and is headquartered at MUSC. Dr. Heather Bonilha was exceptionally successful in being awarded two SCTR grants this year– a pilot grant and a career development award. Dr. Kautz was selected to serve as key personnel on the SCTR grant in the role of Director of the Novel Methodologies program. The higher profile of the College of Health Professions with respect to SCTR should lead to increased opportunities for College faculty to take advantage of the SCTR resources.

New Endowed Scholarship In January 2011, Ms. Mary Carpenter paid a heartfelt tribute to her husband by naming the Ernest W Carpenter, M.D. Endowed Scholarship for Physician Assistant Studies in his memory. Dr. Carpenter, a MUSC College of Medicine class of ‘62 alumnus, dedicated his life to the care of his patients, most of whom lived in northwest Michigan. Ms. Carpenter felt strongly that his legacy reflects his commitment to quality primary care for all, especially those in rural areas. As these populations are served more by Physician Assistants, Ms. Carpenter chose to have the scholarship benefit the College’s Physician Assistant Studies program and its students. The Ernest W Carpenter, M.D. Endowed Scholarship is the second endowed scholarship benefitting the Division.
Planned Gift Designated for Health Administration and Policy
Dr. Brian Poplin
Dr. Brian Poplin, DHA alumnus, established the Poplin Leadership Development Fund in the spring of 2011. His hope in establishing this endowed fund is to provide sustained support for the Master in Health Administration and Doctorate in Health Administration program. The College thanks Dr. Poplin for his generous gift.
Tribute to D. Glen Askins By Wally Pregnall with adaptation When Glen Askins, M.D. passed away on May 2, 2011, the obituaries that followed were appropriately extensive, noting the many achievements and honors of a lifetime spanning 76 years. For the MUSC community and beyond, it is the qualities known to those closest to Askins, College of Health Professions professor and clinical services department chair, that make his legacy and his loss all the more profound. Colleagues repeated certain words to describe Askins: thoughtful, insightful, steady, lowkey, unflappable, caring, empathetic, humble, endearing and intellectually curious are among the most common.
Dr. D. Glen Askins
Not one to hesitate expressing what he thought, Askins was often direct, a quality sometimes misunderstood until it was evident that his motivation was simply the desire for the best for the patients, students, colleagues and institutions he served. As Mr. Arnie Metz, assistant professor in the Physician Assistant Studies Program recalled, “At first, when we were trying to get the PA Program off the ground, I thought of him as a gruff, smoking doctor. As our relationship developed, we both opened up and I saw the kind, thoughtful man behind the deep Southern drawl.” The qualities which endeared Askins to colleagues, students and patients transcended formal relationships and resulted in deep, lasting friendships. Dr. Becki Trickey, former Interim Executive Dean, described Askins as a “southern gentleman and a true friend.” She shared a quote of George Washington that depicted her relationship with Askins, “True friendship is a plant of slow growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.” For innumerable reasons, both personal and professional, Askins will be missed by the MUSC community. As shared by Dr. Lisa Saladin, Interim Dean, “Askins was a gifted clinician and outstanding educator whose impact on the physician assistant profession in South Carolina is immeasurable. He will be truly missed as a friend and colleague.” His legacy will live on not only through his achievements and the many students he sent forth to practice, but through the manner in which he lived life.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS The College ended this fiscal year with a positive operating margin despite the considerable decreases in revenue the College faced. State appropriations were yet again reduced, as they have been over the last several years, now totaling only 12% of total College annual revenue. Revenue from tuition and fees also declined in FY2011. Despite these financial hurdles, the College maintained a commitment to the implementation of its strategic plan and continued to invest strategically in the area of research. Building enhancements, renovations, and key hires have facilitated tremendous growth in research. In FY2011 research awards reached nearly $6.1M up from $3.7M in FY2010. This is an unprecedented accomplishment for the College. The investments that were made possible through the financial stability of the College played an integral role in this significant growth. The College continues to monitor and analyze our financial status through the utilization of many analytical tools. One of these tools has been our forecasting model, PFM, Future Perfect. This model allows the College to project future results using past performance trends for project planning. We are very excited about this strategic planning tool and the financial advantage and efficiency it will bring to our College. Challenging economic times and the reduction in revenue for FY2011 have not prevented the College from continuing to grow and prosper. The finance team continuously analyzes the direct effect and financial impact potential decisions will have on the bottom line.

State Honor COMMUNITY AID, RELIEF, EDUCATION AND SUPPORT CLINIC (CARES) The outstanding community service offered by Dr. Wanda Gonsalves, College of Health Professions’ Medical Director for the Physician Assistant Program, and the students who operate the Community Aid, Relief, Education and Support Clinic (CARES), has garnered recognition at the highest level of state government. In May, Dr. Gonsalves was presented with the 2011 South Carolina Governor’s Volunteer Award by Governor Nikki Haley and the South Carolina Association for Volunteer Administration in a ceremony at the South Carolina State House. Accepting the award with her were thirteen present and past student board members who have helped organize and operate the clinic. In addition to healthcare benefits to the community, for the College of Health Professions the CARES clinic represents a popular opportunity for CHP physical therapy and physician assistant studies students to gain real world experience in a clinical setting. One of the key factors in the clinic’s popularity among students is that it is not only student-operated, but to a large degree also student organized. This, says Dr. Gonsalves, is by design. Because of being fully invested in the clinic’s operation, students learn decision-making skills, leadership, costeffective care, and ways to effectively communicate with their colleagues - all in the pursuit of making the clinic work to the benefit of its patients. This studentcentered model allows for continuous quality improve- Dr. Wanda Gonsalves and MUSC Students recieving award from Governor Nikki Haley. ment through ongoing discussions of how procedures can be refined to maximize available resources. Students from the College’s Master in Health Administration Program often assume leadership roles in managing the overall operations of the clinic. Patients in the CARES setting present with a wide variety of symptoms, many of which are masked by other conditions or lack of previous healthcare, making a collaborative, interdisciplinary approach a necessity. MUSC College of Health Professions 39
Student Major Accomplishments
Students find this learning experience as rewarding as it is challenging, as evidenced by the number of students who volunteer to serve even after they have met their class requirements. The success of the CARES clinic lies in its ability to serve the needs of the medically underserved while simultaneously helping students gain experience in an interdisciplinary, real world setting. Having been recognized for its success in the Charleston community and on the MUSC campus, the program has now rightfully earned wider recognition as a model of community service and education worthy of being emulated.

Students learn more about the complex issues involved in health and health care delivery through interactive didactic sessions and the design and implementation of community projects. INTERPROFESSIONAL EDUCATION FELLOWSHIP The purpose of the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) Interprofessional Education Fellowship is to encourage interprofessional engagement among students and faculty. The program seeks to foster a new generation of graduates who are capable of demonstrating interprofessional competencies that go beyond those developed within individual academic programs. Further, the fellowship strives to enrich collaborative learning experiences for MUSC students and promote a new level of professional development and leadership so that graduates will function as effective collaborators when they move into interprofessional healthcare delivery or research contexts.

showcases those students who model caring and compassionate behaviors towards others. Students that are awarded the Caring Professionals Program Student Award shows a genuine compassionate attitude and selflessness to others (including fellow students), models caring behaviors, empathy, and sensitivity when engaged with those in need and participates in activities which benefit others in the community. 2010 Recipients: Ms. Hannah Foster (Physical Therapy), Mr. Victor Fresco (PhD in Rehabilitation Science), Ms. Roxana Popa (Master in Health Adminstration), Mr. Darren Johnson (Physician Assistant Studies) D. G. ASKINS, JR., M.D. SCHOLARSHIP In 2004 the D. G. Askins, Jr., M.D. Scholarship was established by former CHP Professor and Department Chair, Dr. Askins. The purpose of the scholarship is to advance the Physician Assistant (PA) profession by providing awards to deserving students of the CHP PA program who demonstrate the commitment to practice their profession according to the highest standards of excellence and leadership as exhibited by Dr. Askins. In 2010, on the 50th anniversary of his graduation from the Medical University of South Carolina’s College of Medicine, the D. G. Askins, Jr., M.D. Scholarship was fully endowed. Now, in the first year of endowment, Dr. Askins would undoubtedly be proud that the scholarship in his name has been awarded to PA student Hyman Fowler, who embodies the excellence and leadership promoted by the scholarship. Despite not having the opportunity to meet Dr. Askins prior to his passing in May 2011, Fowler shares the same commitment to excellence that inspired the scholarship. For Fowler, the commitment was borne from personal experience at a young age. When he was about 10 years old, Fowler’s sister was diagnosed with thyroid cancer, a disease that is often asymptomatic until it reaches an advanced stage. Thankfully for the Fowler family, her primary care physician and other providers caught the disease in an early, treatable stage. Hyman Fowler attributes his sister being alive today to the care she received from her primary care team. Another motivating factor to go into primary care came from Fowler’s recent trip to South Africa. He saw up close the impact that primary care, or lack thereof, can have on vulnerable populations. The ability to manage or prevent disease through primary care made an impact on his career goals. He sees himself practicing in the southScholarship award recipients from left to right: (front row) Ms. Lesley Dillard, Ms. Kelly Anderson, Ms. Kristen east, if not South Carolina, and Merritt, Ms. Rebecca Jones, Ms. Andrea Grunberger, Ms. Amanda Cooper, Ms. Gretchen Reibold, Ms. Elizabeth Douglas, Ms. Sarah Enoch, (back row) Mr. Christopher Franz, Mr. Sean Wittorf, Mr. Steven Johnson, Mr. Steven helping to serve the medically Alvarez, Ms. Jill Polhemus, Ms. Melissa Turpin, Mr. Johnathan Ahearn, Ms. Tatyana McElveen. underserved in rural areas. It’s that sense of compassion and commitment to excellence that makes Fowler such a fitting recipient of the Askins Scholarship, and another reason why Dr. Askins would be proud that his scholarship is contributing to Hyman Fowler’s success as a Physician Assistant. SHOWCASING SUCCESS - STUDENT SCHOLARSHIPS The College of Health Professions held its annual awards ceremony, Showcasing Success, on October 8, 2010 at St. Luke’s Chapel in Charleston, SC. This awards ceremony is held annually to honor individuals who are outstanding student representatives with extraordinary accomplishments. Scholarships are a critical means by which the College of Health Professions can support its students. We appreciate the support of our alumni and friends who have made these 2010 scholarships possible. 42
