Position Summary
Department Summary
In alignment with its designation as Oregon’s polytechnic university, Oregon Tech has established allied health clinics in which students are provided practice-based, experiential learning opportunities while meeting healthcare needs of the region. The newly formed Clinical Services department will assist in the operational management of these allied health clinics overseeing the day-to-day functions, such as regulatory compliance, billing, insurance processes, etc. This will allow faculty and programs to focus on student learning, clinical research, and other academic endeavors. While each program maintains responsibility for its academic enterprise (i.e. program admission and curricula, training and assessment of students, competency monitoring) within the Academic Affairs Division, Clinical Services facilitates the clinical enterprise (i.e. clinic operation) within University Health and Wellness. As a new model, the academic and clinical enterprises will work together to develop best practices, provide allied health students with a well-rounded academic experience, and deliver quality care to our community.
