Health Sciences Center, San Antonio  UT Brownsville  UT Dallas  UTEP  UT Pan American * Schools at Galveston, Southwestern, MD Anderson, San Antonio, UTEP, Brownsville, Pan American

Culture of Wellness: Opportunities in Education  Most faculty with some knowledge about wellness.  Wellness concepts already present to different degrees in educational curriculum.  Elements of the culture present in fragmented form.

Culture of Welness: Opportunities in Practice  Most professions provide direct or indirect care to patients, and patient contact longer than MD.  Practice settings are varied (hospital, outpatient, clinics in the community).  Wellness practice present in varying degrees.

Challenges  The field of Allied Health is diverse and fragmented.  Each profession has a specific accreditation process and curriculum requirements (no common curriculum).  Professional identities are linked to specific professions and not to the field as a whole.  Professional associations are also profession- specific.

Near- Term Suggestions  Centralized effort leading to wide dissemination of wellness concepts to UT System units, especially those with active programs in the health field.  System-sponsored faculty development.  System-sponsored educational materials (course structure, lectures, slide sets, background literature).
