Our Pipeline to Practice approach connects students to careers, professionals to communities, and communities to better health. We offer health careers exploration; continuing education programs and services; clinical training opportunities; and community partnership development.
MASH Camp (Medical Academy of Science and Health) is a one-day camp where students explore health careers. Held at a local healthcare facility, campers learn about various health professions, their educational requirements, job duties, and key skills. They also participate in hands-on workshops to experience the tools and technology used in these careers.
The NYS AHEC Scholars Program is a two-year, interdisciplinary program with a defined set of clinical, didactic, and community-based training activities.
NAHEC partners with colleges and rural healthcare providers to support the Rural Healthcare Immersion Program. Rural areas tend to lack widespread and accessible healthcare services compared to suburban and urban areas. This program promotes the local community to future healthcare providers.
