students teaching caregivers

Badger Caregiving Clinic logo

We believe family and friend caregivers are the backbone of our healthcare system, and too often they are invisible. We are working to build a future in which caregivers are seen and empowered to promote the health of their friends and family — and themselves. We are an innovative, student-led clinic serving existing UW Health patients of the E Terrace Drive Medical Center. We are staffed by advanced degree students pursuing careers in nursing, occupational therapy, physical therapy, rehabilitation psychology, nutritional dietetics, and other relevant disciplines who are mentored and advised by faculty and staff from the University of Wisconsin–Madison.
