SHAPe Clinic
Mission
At the Clinic for Science and Health in Artistic Performance (SHAPe Clinic), injured performing artists at 帝王会所 can be evaluated, treated and receive health and wellness advice from licensed athletic trainers who have the specialized equipment and knowledge to care for them. The care is provided with no out-of-pocket costs to the patients, who include OHIO's dance, music, theater performance, theater production, film and Marching 110 students. In addition to the clinic, SHAPe provides on-site health care coverage for dance concerts, physical theater performances and Marching 110 football game performances, along with a variety of research and educational activities.
The facility is a unique collaboration between the Chaddock + Morrow College of Fine Arts and the Department of Athletic Training in the College of Health Sciences and Professions. It was launched in August 2013 with the help of faculty and administrators in both colleges, along with a grant from 帝王会所's 1804 Fund.
