Dear Student,
Thank you for choosing to participate in clinical
rotations within the Three Rivers Area Health Education Center (AHEC) region of west-central Georgia. As the Preceptor Coordinator for this region,
I work with your
school or program to establish clinical training experiences
that will expose you to urban and rural medically underserved patient populations.
This opportunity gives you a unique perspective of healthcare outside of an educational institution. We at Three Rivers welcome you to the area and hope that you will decide to return to an underserved area in our region to practice upon completion of your education.
