Dear RHC Community,

We hope you will join us for our free, upcoming technical assistance webinar, A-Z: All You Need to Know About Making Your RHC a PA Clinical Rotation Site.

Physician Associates/Physician Assistants are often integral members of the care team in an RHC. Studies have shown that student shadowing and training opportunities in rural settings are strong predictors of future employment in those settings.

This webinar will ensure your facility is equipped with the knowledge necessary to consider establishing your RHC as a PA clinical rotation site.

Several speakers will join us from universities with strong PA programs and speak about their experiences placing students in rural training sites. Additionally, past NARHC President and longtime family medicine PA, John Gill, will share his RHC’s experience hosting numerous PA students.

Whether you’ve hosted PA students before and want to improve your process, or you’re considering the opportunity for the first time, we hope you’ll join us to learn from several experts in the field!

There will also be a Q&A session during the webinar.
