| Popis: |
Like many areas of the United States, Hawai'i and its rural communities are suffering from a significant physician shortage. The University of Hawai'i (UH) John A. Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM) developed the Hawai'i Rural Health Program (HRHP) in 2011 to help provide early and substantial rural training experiences for its medical students in hopes of generating more rural health care providers. Thus far, 20.6% of the students who participated in this program and have since graduated from residency are now practicing in rural communities. Final exam grades of students who participated in the program were not statistically different from those who did not participate, suggesting a similar quality of training between both the rural and traditional cohorts of students. Reflections from students who completed the program demonstrate the large and lasting impact that this immersive experience has on their medical education and desire to help rural communities. |
