There is no doubt that Covid-19 has changed the way we all conduct our day to day lives. 

During these unprecedented and uncertain times Grand Valley State University’s Traverse City Regional Center is certain about the dedication to our students. We are in this together and still committed to our students, faculty and community. As soon as classes were no longer in person, Grand Valley State University Traverse City   Allied Health and Physician Assistant Studies program took deliberate and meaningful action to donate all protective equipment to Munson Medical Center. This included masks, gloves, hats, gowns, booties, and other personal protection equipment (PPE) used for class and clinical work. 

When Nicholus Kopacki, PAS Site Director-Traverse City, Assistant Program Director, and Affiliate Faculty Traverse City Campus, talked to his students, faculty and staff about donating all protective wear; it was no surprise that all were on board to help the local community workers at Munson Medical Center. Several have asked if there is more that can be done.

To show their gratitude the PAS students came together to create the below video for the staff as a token of their appreciation. Enjoy the below video of the PAS students to the GVSU Faculty. 

If you’d like to learn more about the Physician Assistant Studies program, RSVP and join us for a free virtual information session on May 1st, 2020 at 10am. This webinar will cover GVSU's MPAS program and criteria for application (as well as COVID-19 impact on application process), will introduce viewers to Traverse City Campus and will answer most commonly asked questions. You will also have an opportunity to ask questions. RSVP today

(Please note the video was created prior to mandate on social distancing)
