School-Based Health Center (SBHC) – Student Project Descriptions

2023/24 School Year

Are you a graduate student looking for an opportunity to do a capstone, thesis, practicum or final project with real-word public health impact? We have two project opportunities with Public Health Seattle & King County that can offer great experience, a chance to apply evaluation skills, and make a difference in local public health!

BACKGROUND:

There are currently 36 comprehensive school-based health centers in King County offering medical and mental health services to over 10,000 K-12 students annually. Public Health-Seattle & King County’s School Based Partnerships Program (SBPP) issues grants to partner healthcare organizations that operate the clinics. The SBPP team has been working with the UW research team on evaluation efforts since 2021 focusing on issues of racial and educational justice in school-based health centers (SBHCs) and employing the equitable evaluation framework.

The SBPP Team in collaboration with the UW (Dr. Jenna van Draanen) has two potential student project ideas for the 2023/24 year (below). If there are other areas of interest to students beyond what is described below, interested students are encouraged to contact Erin MacDougall (emacdougall@kingcounty.gov) to propose alternative projects to discuss their alignment with this program’s work.

PROJECT DESCRIPTIONS:

Project 1: Understanding student experiences with SBHCs

It is vital to understand student experiences with care at SBHCs and what can be improved about the care they receive. Building off of a student project from 2022 that assessed the range of student satisfaction tools being used at SBHCs across King County, this project would aim to:

• Round with partners to see if a universal tool is desired.
• Work with PHSKC to finalize a process and a feedback tool that could be used system-wide;
• Coordinate pilot implementation of surveys across whole SBHC system;
• Conduct analysis of survey results from first 6 months of system-wide implementation to understand:
  • What are student experiences with care at SBHCs in King County?
  • Do students and families perceive the services they receive to be high quality? Culturally competent? Equitable?

Specific project methods, data collection, and analysis plans would be developed in collaboration with the SBPP team and the SBHC managers.  Bi-weekly meetings with the SBPP team will be held to ensure regular touch points and communication and to help with project progress.

Project 2: Understanding logistical and systemic barriers to providing equitable, relevant, and culturally responsive care in SBHCs

Equitably serving students at SBHCs requires overcoming logistical and systemic barriers, both internal and external to the SBHC. Building from two student projects completed in 2022, one on gaining understanding of the use of clinical assessments around social determinants and health; and the other focused on describing providers’ approaches to providing equitable care in SBHCs, this project will aim to:

1. Build on the previous two projects’ outcomes including conducting a landscape analysis of already available training, learning resources in the community and within own and other agencies to promote equity in healthcare practices.

• What kinds of trainings are agencies doing on equity and anti-racism and what is the method, frequency, and content of the existing trainings? How are sponsors assessing the impact of those trainings on provider practices, if at all?
• What learning opportunities do providers have to understand an integrate impacts of SDOH into student care and especially to help support strengths that students bring to their care plan?
• What else would they like to be doing?
• What other approaches are being used beyond training? (e.g. reflective practice, anti-racist practice groups, professional development goals, etc.)

2. Gain understanding from SBHC providers and managers of needed additional resources and training focused on reducing logistical barriers to access and addressing inequities for students in schools with SBHCs.

• Are SBHCs learning from school communities what is needed and responding to that? How?
• What other ways are sponsor agencies identifying barriers and working to overcome them?

3. Gain understanding from individual SBHC providers, SBHC care teams, and healthcare systems on their ideas for implementable strategies to reduce logistical barriers to access and addressing inequities in health care.

• What resources would help sponsor agencies and staff to reduce additional logistical barriers to access and addressing inequities?
• What would they like to do differently/try on? At what level do they plan to support change? (e.g. clinic, community, system levels)
• How can the PHSKC SBPP support efforts to try new approaches?

Specific project methods, data collection, and analysis plans would be developed in collaboration with the SBPP team and the SBHC managers.  Bi-weekly meetings with the SBPP team will be held to ensure regular touch points and communication and to help with project progress.

CONTACT:

For students interested in capstone, thesis, practicum, or other final project opportunities, please reach out to Erin MacDougall emacdougall@kingcounty.gov by October 1 to discuss possibilities and potential fit.
