Rural Experiences for Health Professions Students
AHEC
With 85 percent of the state designated as a Primary Care Health Professional Shortage and/or Medically Underserved Area/Populations, South Dakota faces current and emerging challenges related to both the supply and demand for healthcare professionals. In response, Yankton Rural Area Health Education Center, YRAHEC, is sponsoring a new program, Rural Experiences for Health Professions Students, REHPS, which will give first and second year medical, physician assistant, pharmacy and certified nurse practitioner students a four week experience in a rural setting. The goal of the REHPS program is to increase the number of medical professionals who practice in rural and frontier communities in South Dakota.
