• OUTREACH:AN IMPORTANT PART OF VCOM'S PURPOSE AND MISSION IS ENSURING THAT ITS STUDENTS ARE "GLOBALLY-MINDED [AND] COMMUNITY-FOCUSED." VCOM'S GOAL OF SERVING THE UNDERSERVED DRAWS STUDENTS FROM ALL ACROSS THE UNITED STATES. OUR STUDENTS ARE COMMITTED TO BECOMING PHYSICIANS THAT SERVE THOSE MOST IN NEED. THIS IS PERHAPS MOST VISIBLE IN OUR ONGOING OUTREACH EFFORTS, BOTH IN THE APPALACHIAN AND DELTA REGIONS, AS WELL AS INTERNATIONALLY. THE OUTREACH PROGRAMS BUILT INTO THE CURRICULUM PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH REWARDING SERVICE EXPERIENCES IN SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES AND BEYOND.THESE PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED TO ADDRESS HEALTHCARE DISPARITIES INCLUDING THOSE RELATED TO RURAL LOCATIONS, MINORITY POPULATIONS, POVERTY AND ACCESS TO PRIMARY CARE. AN EMPHASIS ON THE TEACHING OF PREVENTIVE CARE THROUGH OUTREACH EXPERIENCES ALLOWS VCOM FACULTY AND STUDENTS TO NOT ONLY TREAT PATIENTS, BUT ALSO GUIDE STUDENTS IN IMPROVING THE OVERALL HEALTH OF RURAL AND UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS, REINFORCING THE VCOM MISSION. TO SUPPORT THE STUDENTS' EFFORT TO FULFILL THE MISSION, VCOM WORKS YEAR-ROUND TO DEVELOP PARTNERSHIPS, RESEARCH ENDEAVORS, CLINICAL OPPORTUNITIES AND FACILITY IMPROVEMENTS TO ENSURE STUDENTS AND ALUMNI CAN FOLLOW WHERE THEY ARE LED.MEDICAL OUTREACH EXPERIENCES ARE A KEY COMPONENT IN EDUCATING STUDENTS TO MEET THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS IN CHALLENGING ENVIRONMENTS. THROUGH COMMUNITY OUTREACH, VCOM STUDENTS EXPERIENCE THE IMPACT OF PROVIDING CARE FOR PATIENTS WHO LIVE IN POOR SOCIOECONOMIC CONDITIONS. FROM THE TIME THEY COMMENCE THEIR MEDICAL EDUCATION, VCOM STUDENTS GAIN SKILLS IN PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICINE THROUGH OUTREACH ACTIVITIES IN THE COMMUNITIES AROUND THE CAMPUSES AS WELL AS REGIONALLY. BEGINNING IN THEIR FIRST YEAR, VCOM STUDENTS ARE ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN PUBLIC HEALTH, PARTICIPATING IN LOCAL HEALTH FAIRS, FREE SCREENING EVENTS, COMMUNITY HEALTH CLINICS, PREVENTION EDUCATION PROGRAMS, MINI-MEDICAL SCHOOLS AT RURAL HIGH SCHOOLS AND OTHER LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES WITHIN THE COMMUNITY, ALL WHILE RECEIVING INSTRUCTION FROM EXPERIENCED FACULTY AND STAFF. REGIONAL OUTREACH PROGRAMSFROM THE TIME THEY BEGIN THEIR MEDICAL EDUCATION, VCOM STUDENTS ARE ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN COMMUNITY SERVICE. THIS PAST YEAR, THE VCOM CAMPUSES WERE ONCE AGAIN ABLE TO PROVIDE COMMUNITY SERVICE ON A WIDESPREAD BASIS, AS RESTRICTIONS FOR PUBLIC GATHERINGS WERE LESSENED ACROSS THE COUNTRY. ACROSS THE FOUR CAMPUSES, VCOM'S STUDENTS ANSWERED THE CALL OF THEIR LOCAL COMMUNITIES AND COULD BE SEEN SUPPORTING A VARIETY OF ORGANIZATIONS WITH FOOD AND SUPPLY DRIVES, OFFERING HEALTH SCREENINGS AND PROVIDING EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS TO THE PUBLIC. OUR NEWEST CAMPUS WAS NOT EXEMPT FROM GETTING INVOLVED EARLY AND PLAYING A CRITICAL ROLE. WHEN HURRICANE IDA AFFECTED AREAS OF SOUTHERN LOUISIANA AND SENT EVACUEES NORTH TO MONROE, VCOM LOUISIANA STUDENTS, FACULTY AND STAFF ROSE TO THE OCCASION AND JOINED FRONT LINE EFFORTS TO PROVIDE SUPPORT FOR THOSE DISPLACED BY THE DISASTER. JOINED BY REGIONAL DISASTER RELIEF ORGANIZATIONS, CITY OFFICIALS AND AREA COLLEGIATE NURSING STUDENTS, THEY COMPLETED TRIAGE FORMS, WROTE AND FILLED PRESCRIPTIONS, ASSISTED IN MEETING BASIC HYGIENE NEEDS, TAKING BLOOD PRESSURE AND OTHER VITALS, AND PROVIDING MUCH NEEDED SUPPLIES TO THE HUNDREDS OF EVACUEES WHO TOOK SHELTER AT THE MONROE CIVIC CENTER. A SMALL SAMPLE OF JUST A FEW COMMON EVENTS HELD AT EACH CAMPUS IS DESCRIBED BELOW. THESE ACTIVITIES REPRESENT ONLY A FRACTION OF THE OUTREACH ACTIVITIES THAT WERE HELD, WITH EACH CAMPUS HAVING A VARIETY OF EVENTS UNIQUE TO THEIR COMMUNITY. PLEASE ALSO VIEW OUR ANNUAL REPORT FOR A MORE COMPREHENSIVE PICTURE OF LOCAL OUTREACH ENGAGEMENTS.MINI-MED SCHOOLS - A CORNERSTONE OF VCOM'S MISSION IS TO TRAIN THE NEXT GENERATION OF PHYSICIANS.

VCOM STUDENTS, AS PART OF THEIR APPALACHIAN OUTREACH AND INTERPROFESSIONAL EARLY CLINICAL EXPERIENCES (IECE) TRAINING, ASSIST FACULTY IN CONDUCTING THE PROGRAM 14 FRIDAYS A YEAR. HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS ROTATE THROUGH SIX STATIONS, EACH STAFFED BY VCOM STUDENTS AND DEDICATED TO A COMMON HEALTH PROBLEM. THE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO ENCOURAGE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TO CONSIDER HEALTHCARE AS A POTENTIAL CAREER OPTION.SUMMER ENRICHMENT EXPERIENCE (SEE) - EACH SUMMER, VCOM HOSTS SUMMER CAMPS FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS, FROM RURAL AREAS AND AT-RISK POPULATIONS, WITH ONE WEEK FOR BOYS AND THE OTHER FOR GIRLS. THE SUMMER ENRICHMENT EXPERIENCE (SEE) IS OFFERED TO RISING SOPHOMORES, JUNIORS AND SENIORS AND PROVIDES THEM WITH AN INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN ANATOMY AND MEDICAL SCIENCE. DESIGNED TO ENCOURAGE STUDENTS TO PURSUE CAREERS IN SCIENCE AND MEDICINE, THE SEE PROGRAM ALSO GIVES THEM AN APPRECIATION OF THE FUNDAMENTALS OF A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE.STEM OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOUTH - SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING AND MATH (STEM) ARE ESSENTIAL IN THE WORLD OF TODAY AND TOMORROW. TO PROMOTE INTEREST IN HEALTHCARE CAREERS AND SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES WITH STUDENTS FROM RURAL AND UNDERSERVED AREAS, VCOM STUDENTS AND FACULTY PROVIDE A NUMBER OF STEM PROGRAMS TO LOCAL SCHOOLS.INTERNATIONAL OUTREACH PROGRAMINTERNATIONAL OUTREACH EFFORTS DISTINGUISH VCOM AS HAVING ONE OF THE NATION'S OUTSTANDING MEDICAL SCHOOL GLOBAL HEALTH PROGRAMS WHILE SUPPORTING THE VISION AND MISSION OF THE COLLEGE. VCOM PROVIDES EXPERIENCE FOR FUTURE PHYSICIANS TO PARTICIPATE IN ONE-WEEK LONG INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL OUTREACH TRIPS FOR SECOND-YEAR STUDENTS AND FACULTY PHYSICIANS, UP TO 12 TIMES ANNUALLY. STUDENTS IN THEIR THIRD AND FOURTH YEARS ALSO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO PURSUE INTERNATIONAL CLINICAL ROTATIONS.WITH THREE YEAR-ROUND MEDICAL CLINICS AND HOSPITAL AFFILIATIONS IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC AND HONDURAS, COUPLED WITH EDUCATIONAL AFFILIATIONS WITH THE APPALACHIAN SCHOOL OF PHARMACY, THE NURSING PROGRAM AT BLUEFIELD UNIVERSITY (AND OTHER PARTNERS), THE VCOM INTERNATIONAL CLINIC SITES PROVIDE A MOST UNIQUE EXPERIENCE. THESE EXPERIENCES FOCUS ON SUSTAINABLE PUBLIC HEALTH, COMMUNITY HEALTH AND INDIVIDUAL PATIENT CARE TO POPULATIONS IN NEED ALLOWING STUDENTS TO BECOME GLOBALLY- MINDED, COMMUNITY-FOCUSED PHYSICIANS. RAPIDLY EXPANDING INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH ALSO PROVIDES STUDENTS AND FACULTY OPPORTUNITIES TO USE APPLIED RESEARCH TO ENHANCE PREVENTION OF DISEASE AND PROMOTION OF BETTER HEALTHCARE PRACTICES. IN THE WAKE OF COVID-19, INTERNATIONAL OUTREACH TRIPS WERE TEMPORARILY HALTED DURING 2020 FOR THE SAFETY OF VCOM STUDENTS, FACULTY AND STAFF AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITIES SERVED. VCOM CONTINUED TO SUPPORT THE INTERNATIONAL CLINICS THROUGH STUDENT FUNDRAISERS, DONATIONS OF SUPPLIES AND BI-WEEKLY VIDEO CONFERENCE MEETINGS. TO FURTHER CONTINUE SERVING AND HELP PLAY A PART IN COMBATING THE GLOBAL PANDEMIC, VCOM STUDENTS CHANNELED ADDITIONAL OUTREACH EFFORTS TOWARDS THE LOCAL COMMUNITY.
