Outreach

The College of Medicine reaches out to communities throughout the state in a variety of ways. A few examples are:

• Along the U.S-Mexico border, UA College of Medicine students make home visits and assess community health-care needs.
• Through the Rural Health Professions Program, medicine, pharmacy and nurse practitioner students receive part of their education at rural sites statewide.
• On Native American reservations, physicians from the Steele Children’s Research Center offer early diagnoses of genetic conditions.
• Through the Arizona Telemedicine Program, high-resolution video imaging allows AHSC specialists to provide medical consultation to rural physicians and other health professionals to improve patients’ lives.
• The Arizona Arthritis Center brings much-needed osteoporosis screening to rural communities, work sites, reservations and nursing homes.
• The Arizona Health Sciences Library, Arizona’s most extensive source of health sciences information, is considered one of the best libraries of its kind in the nation.
• Since 1979, College of Medicine students have provided medical services through its Commitment to Underserved People (CUP) outreach clinics.
• The UA College of Medicine – Phoenix in partnership with ASU plays a unique role in community education by hosting provocative public forums on current medical and health-care issues.
