UNMC students train in communities across Nebraska

From September through November, University of Nebraska Medical Center students are participating in student rotations with health professionals across Nebraska as part of their health care education. The rotations are part of the UNMC Rural Health Education Network (RHEN), an innovative program developed to help address the shortage of health professionals in rural Nebraska.

The students represent the colleges of medicine, pharmacy and dentistry, and the School of Allied Health Professions.
 
Nebraska’s Area Health Education Centers support students by integrating them into the community during their rotation. AHECs are community-based programs that work with community and academic partners to address the health care work force needs of medically underserved communities through a variety of activities such as continuing education for providers, pipeline development for K-12 students, and other community-oriented programs.
 
For more information, call your local Area Health Education Center (AHEC) office: Central Nebraska AHEC, Grand Island (308) 385-5074; Northern Nebraska AHEC, Norfolk (402) 644-7256; Nebraska Panhandle AHEC, Scottsbluff (308) 635-6713; Southeast Nebraska AHEC, Beatrice, (402) 228-9094; or at UNMC, (402) 559-8105.
