Student Support
SERVICES WE PROVIDE TO UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT MEDICAL AND ALLIED HEALTH STUDENTS AND RESIDENTS
The regional AHECs serve as a bridge between students on campus and community based health care providers, practices, and programs in numerous ways, including (but not limited to):
- Directing you to community projects and programs that utilize your expertise
- Encouraging you to meet the rural providers at event such as the Rural Health Symposium
- Providing Laptop computers for your use during a rotation when necessary (such as when the practice has no Internet service, or when electronic medical records are required)
- Providing pagers when your preceptor requests them
- Providing information about the community and the local hospital you will be working in
- Providing Practice Profiles to your Clerkship Coordinators
- Connecting you to other health providers and services in the area, such as physical therapy or public health programs
- Providing textbooks to your preceptors and to the Resource Room in the AHEC Residence for your use off campus
- Providing appropriate housing and emergency contacts during your rural rotations
- Providing materials for any community presentations you may have during a rotation (such as Career Fair)
