- Local Community Health Opportunities
-
Our resident body and patient population is culturally and spiritually diverse, and we build on that foundation by providing inclusive, compassionate, high-quality and personalized care to the underserved in our local communities.
In your community medicine rotation you’ll expand your understanding of local needs and local resources. The goal is to familiarize you with resources in the local community and to help you learn how to engage with them to address specific patient needs.
