Clinical Rotation Application
INTRODUCTION
Utah AHEC offers clinical placement/rotations in medically underserved areas in both rural and urban settings. Depending on the location, students may receive assistance with housing, mileage, and support relative to their placement. The logistics for these placements are arranged for by the Utah AHEC system.
Sponsorships for students in primary care disciplines are provided by various funding agencies. Qualifying students include medical students and residents in family medicine, pediatrics, internal medicine, OB/GYN; physician assistants, advanced practice nurses, pharmacy and dental residents. Placements will typically occur in rural sites and or Community Health Centers. Please be aware that if you qualify and choose to complete an AHEC placement/rotation, you will be regularly contacted by the Utah AHEC Program to track your career choices, as required by the program's federal funding agency, HRSA.
Upon approval, health professions' students are eligible for AHEC assistance in identifying clinical training opportunities in medically underserved sites. Applicants should be in good academic standing and have completed at least the first year of their educational program.
