Join HRSA for a dynamic series of events to celebrate National Rural Health Day on Thursday, November 21. This yearâs theme is âAdvancing Maternal Health in Rural Communities.â HRSA will highlight the work of federal agencies, rural health care providers, and state and community-based organizations who are enhancing maternal health services through workforce training, hospital technical assistance, telehealth initiatives, and flexible and innovative care coordination. Visit HRSAâs National Rural Health Day Agenda webpage for a full events schedule and take part in discussions with rural researchers, federal and community leaders, and health professionals dedicated to making a difference for rural mothers and families. | The National Health Service Corps Students to Service Loan Repayment Program application is open. Up to $120,000 is available for loan repayment assistance to medical, dental, nursing and physician assistant students in their final year of school. Students can apply until Thursday, November 7.   | HRSA is excited to introduce our Health Center Performance Improvement Toolkit. You can use it to conduct self-assessments to understand the focus areas and potential activities needed to achieve your performance improvement goals â it includes a guide and a tool for doing so. These resources aim to foster innovation, enhance patient care, and improve health outcomes for the underserved populations you serve. Access the toolkit on our Health Center Performance Improvement Toolkit webpage. Join a webinar on Thursday, November 14 to learn more about the toolkit. Speakers from the National Center for Equitable Care for Elders (a HRSA-funded National Training and Technical Assistance Partner) and the Kentucky Primary Care Association will provide examples of how partners can support you as you use the toolkit. | |
