Occupational Therapy students in Sam Troiaโs โAdaptive Technology & Modificationโ class are spending the summer learning how to design and fabricate custom adaptive devices for patients. About 40 of them recently shared their first open-sourced 3D printed devices and presented plans to improve them for patients with mobility, sight and learning challenges. โฃ
โฃ
Weโll be following the class all summer as they push forward existing designs and engineer entirely new devices from scratch.โฃ
โฃ
DIY is at the heart of OTโa career field thatโs all about building independence. Adding 3D printing in an OTโs toolbelt perfectly illustrates NMCโs focus on training creative, forward-thinking professionals to be advocates for their patients. โฃ
(Thanks Omaha Public Library for making technology access a public good.)

Aimee Blackโs story shows why an Ed.D. from Nebraska Methodist College is healthcareโs best-kept secret. After starting her career at the bedside, she knew she wanted a broader impact. Now, sheโs improving health outcomes statewide with Nebraska Total Care.โฃ

Our hybrid-online program is designed for busy professionals; people already doing good work, who could be ๐จ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ต. Aimee worked full-time the whole time, applying everything she learned to her 9-to-5. School projects became community initiatives, and after two years, she had the skills and knowledge to impact health on a population level. โฃ

Walking the tightrope of a professional conflict is one of the hardest skills to master. In our COR 201 class, students recently practiced this balance during their Conflict Management dialogues. โฃ
โฃ
By wrestling with high-stakes issues, NMC graduates learn how to stand firm in their convictions while maintaining deep respect for the person across from them. These are the well-rounded leaders who will define the future of healthcare.โฃ

For students at NMC, the poverty sim is a tone-setter. Throughout their education, they put insight into action through our community-based care model.โฃ
โฃ
In 2025 alone, NMC students provided more than 15,000 hours of healthcare services to 16,000 patients through our Center for Health Partnerships. This hands-on work with community members instills a "heart set" and "mindset" that canโt be taught in a lab. โฃ

This is the fourth and final part in a series of videos filmed at the Nebraska HOSA convention. Many thanks to Dr. Petersmith, the Missouri Community Action Network, NMC staff and faculty volunteers, and all the HOSA students who agreed to appear on camera.
