Community Service is at the Core of What We Do<\/h2>\n

CHS faculty and students are engaged in a variety of community service opportunities that also offer our students hands-on experience. At health fairs we have assessed grip strength (marker of all-cause mortality), blood pressure, balance, strength and flexibility, and provided general home exercise plans and resistance bands to volunteer patients.<\/p>\n

We have volunteered providing sports physicals for ReachOut Pomona, Health fairs with the Pomona Day Laborer Center, and health screenings for the homeless. We have helped with the Southern California Special Olympics, the Fairplex STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) fair, and Pipeline events.<\/p>\n

DPT faculty and students volunteer with the So Cal Trykers (mission to assist children and adults acquire adapted tricycles) \u2013 they assist with fitting and learning to ride. DPT participates in many events for pediatric patients and have continually been a part of the Student Government Association Health Fair booth at the LA County Fair.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

\n\t\t\t\t\tCommitment <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTO HUMANISM<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t
Humanism is at the core of WesternU and encompasses values that we regard to be vital to our mission in health care, education, and community. These values include acceptance, altruism, compassion, diversity, empathy, fairness, inclusion, integrity, kindness, and respect. We embrace Humanism as a primary principle that shapes our actions, interactions, and institutional culture. Embracing Humanism empowers us to grow as individuals and as a community. It is a lifelong and daily commitment\u2014one that requires intention, action, and reflection. Only through this ongoing practice can we truly embody WesternU Humanism and fulfill our mission to teach, to heal, together.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
