The University of Missouri School of Medicine – Columbia, University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Pharmacy and Missouri Telehealth Network are offering a new Rural Health Preceptor ECHO. This preceptor development opportunity provides rural health sites with access to a team of experts in practice improvement, preceptor development and interprofessional team-based care. The team will offer interactive and collaborative online learning sessions the first and third Tuesdays of each month from noon to 1 p.m. for eight months beginning Tuesday, Oct. 5.
Participants will sign up with a small interprofessional team that will attend biweekly interactive video conference sessions and complete a project aimed at process improvement. During the learning collaborative, participants will apply improvement principles to local rural practices, enhance team-based care skills, develop peer networks of support and share best practices for integrating learners in clinical practice.
The complimentary ECHO offers continuing education for nurses, pharmacists and physicians. Registration is required; the pilot ECHO is limited to 25 participants. Contact the Rural Health Preceptor ECHO Coordinator with questions.
