Eastern Shore Area Health Education Center- ESAHEC
Students and faculty from the UMES Department of Physical Therapy participate in educational and community service programs sponsored by the Eastern Shore Area Health Education Center. These programs enable health profession students to experience and understand the valuable and rewarding benefits of providing health care in rural environments. UMES DPT students have enjoyed educational conferences on rural health disparities, geriatrics, legal and ethical issues, and cultural diversity.
