Abstract

Injury Prevention and Care is a University of Nebraska Omaha (UNO) resource within Campus Recreation and Wellness. It serves a variety of students, staff, , and other membership holders with a variety of resources and treatments in caring for injuries and in seeking to prevent new or worsening of injuries. In facilitating the health and growth of this department and their staff, updating the current training resources, and making them more accessible was necessary. Moving forward, discussions of the importance of accessibility and providing various resources, both in IPC and across the UNO campus, were pivotal in the formation and updating of the IPC training website. Additionally, IPC follows the Campus Recreation and Wellness platform of the Eight Dimensions of Wellness, which detail eight different types of wellness. Provision of resources for each of these types of wellness is a potentially highly beneficial resource for both student workers and patients as wellness is far more expensive than simply physical. Based on these needs, the website documents were updated, transferred into a Canvas page format, and supplemented with a variety of other images, videos, flow charts, and other resources to give each IPC student worker the opportunity and tools to grow in their skills, and to adequately and confidently treat each patient within their abilities and scope of practice. The goal in completing this is that this training website would be a great resource for each student worker and that it would last as a great resource for years to come.
