蜜芽app

鈥淒octor,鈥� comes from the Latin word 鈥淒ocere鈥�, meaning 鈥渢o teach.鈥� The mission of the Medical Education Team at 蜜芽appis multipronged. From a patient perspective, we aim to ensure that undergraduate and graduate medical education is sensitive and responsive to the evolving health care needs of diverse international communities. From a provider perspective, we aim to increase accessibility to medical training for traditionally underrepresented segments of our society whilst advocating for a reduction in the financial burden that education places on burgeoning physicians. Overall, we strive to equip our members with the knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to be active participants in shaping an educational environment that best prepares physicians to enter the dynamic health care arena and ultimately make a substantive difference in the lives of their patients.

From student loan reform to increased funding for more residency positions, engage in making sure financial obstacles for socioeconomically challenged students are abolished and funding for adequate residency positions is increased. This allows for all students who wish to pursue medical school to do so, and will also increase the number of residency positions, allowing for a maximum yield of medical school graduates to enter residency, increasing the number of new physicians in our communities to compensate for the physician shortage crisis.

Our collaborative programming with the 蜜芽appCommunity and Public Health Action Committees works to foster compassion for substance abuse and mental health issues while reducing stigma within the profession and public at large.
