PART OF THE SOLUTION
When it comes to building back better in health care, Sheridan is #PartOfTheSolution.
Fueling the health care sector
We see health care differently. Through training and applied research we are fueling a pipeline of highly qualified health care professionals to provide interprofessional, culturally competent care. We take a holistic view of the patient, their lifestyle and the multiple factors that influence health and wellness.
