Health Administration (Community Care), MHA(CC)
The Master of Health Administration (Community Care) provides management education in the home and community care sector. Focused on innovation, analytics and entrepreneurship, the MHA (CC) is designed for professionals already working in healthcare and those interested in transitioning into this dynamic and growing sector. The program addresses the growth in this sector’s importance and complexity as healthcare policy shifts to enable people with chronic illnesses to stay in their own residences, including long term care, rather than hospitals. Required courses focus on the policy environment, management and evaluation skills, and the use of technology to coordinate and deliver health care and support. The program finishes with an applied capstone project aimed at creating a solution – a new program, process, technology and/or organization – for a challenge faced by community organizations delivering or coordinating care and/or support.
