Abstract:

Cape Fear Health has teamed up with Campbell University to train doctors and physicians in rural community health. North Carolina’s shortage of medical professionals in rural areas has led to many rural North Carolinians traveling far distances for health care. The residency program, started in 2017, aims to encourage students to stay in rural areas and start small scale practices.
