and become familiar with current sun safety & skin cancer prevention

information, as it pertains to their scope of practice. Students will be able to demonstrate a proficiency in current

Skin Cancer prevention & detection standards, as well as the appropriate

way to perform a Visual Skin Assessment (VSA) and when to refer them to a dermatologist.

Because Mt’s spend so much time, seeing so much skin, they can play a unique role in easing the skin cancer burden on the healthcare system.
