Two of Georgia’s oldest and finest institutions have come together to enhance the future of healthcare delivery and education in the state. On June 3, 2005, Piedmont Healthcare and Mercer University announced their partnership to establish the Center for Health and Learning. The Center will address compelling issues in health education and healthcare delivery that are facing the community, the state and the nation.
The Center will leverage the demonstrated strengths of Piedmont and Mercer in the areas of clinical care, research and educational services to improve the quality of health professionals and the health of Georgians. While the partnership is not exclusive and allows both institutions to continue to collaborate with others, Piedmont and Mercer have identified potential areas of joint interest. One of the areas of joint interest is the development and support of a Physician Assistant Program. |
