Description
Join us as we kick off our Institute for Primary Care for the 2024-2025 academic year! This month’s seminar will feature a panel of speakers who will discuss the provision of care for rural and underserved communities, including what types of services and providers are needed most in which areas. They’ll also explain the tremendous services provided by our community health centers across the state and how they deliver primary care, dental care, mental health services and pharmacies together to provide their patients fully integrated, comprehensive healthcare. We’ll wrap up the session with information on available national and state-level programs that encourage and support healthcare professionals to work in these areas.
