Native American Health

Native American Health - Third year residents spend 4 weeks working in the clinics of the United Indian Health Services (UIHS). Time is spent at their primary clinic in Arcata, the Potawat Health Village, as well as outlying clinics under the supervision of their Family Physicians. The goal of the rotation is to gain knowledge and respect for the issues involved in providing medical care for the Native American communities on the North Coast of California. In addition, elective time may be spent at UIHS if desired.
