Summer Health Program Set For Minority Students The North Carolina Health" Manpower Development Pro gram (NCHMDP), an inter institutional program of the state university system, ope rating under the aegis of UNC Chapel Hill, has been awarded a $26,580 grant by the Kate B. Reynolds Health Care Trust of Winston-Salem. Executive di .rector of the foundation,Jtob er( G PageL informed NCH MDP of the Award to help finance its 1975 Clinical Work Study Summer Health Prog ram. Additional funds to un derwrite the cost of the prog ram will be provided through the financial aid offices of the participating institutions: El izabeth City State University, North Carolina Central Univ ersity, Pembroke State Uni versity, and UNC-Chapel Hill. The ten-week summer prog-; ram, scheduled for June 2 through August 8, is designed to provide approximately 100 minority and disadvantaged students, who are enrolled in health or health-related curri cula at the participating insti tutions, with realistic clinical work assignments in health care • agencies. The program will also provide participants with selected academic enri chment experiences. P V __a in__ — — ■ uufvmy ruuouil , NCHMDP director, stated that the program “offers an excellent opportunity for sel ected students to have signifi cant learning experiences during the summer months, while at the same time, earn money needed to continue their education." The health interns” will earn a minimum of $80 per week; twenty per cent of which will come from NCHMDP grant funds, and eighty percent from institut ional work-study funds. In or der to participate, students must be eligible for financial aid according to work-study guidelines at the institutions where they are enrolled. The clinical experiences will provide students with inten sive exposure to the atmo sphereof health care agencies and personal contact with he alth professionals. “By work ing closely with health profe ssionals in the execution of their daily responsibilities, students will not only become familiar with the many ser-( vices and duties performed by ’ various health personnel, but will also learn more about the many operations involved in the delivery of health care services.” “These experiences will hopefully reinforce the stud ent’s commitment and moti vation for a health career,” Dr. Allison stated. In addition to the clinical assignments, the students will be involved in selected learn ing experiences, including academic health sciences se minars conducted by local he alth professionals, field tripe' to health care facilities and professional schools, and pro grammed health sciences self instructional materials. According to Dr. Allison, the self-instructional units, cove ring health sciences termino logy, use of the health sciences library, and organization and expression for the health pro fessional, will be a most im portant and meaningful asp ect of the summer experience. "Thes units are deeigred to strengthen language, study, and communicative skills es sential to professional train ing." “We believe that the clinical involvements and the acade mic experiences will help the r 11 ' ■ students become more aware of the many options available for a health career, and will also enhapce their potential for realizing their health car eer goals. These experience^ should also serve to broaden their awareness of the critical need for more minority health professionals,” Dr. Allison sa id._ ‘ The NCHMDP’s Health Ca reers Recruitment-Counseling Regional Center directors whc will be responsible for imple menting the summer program are : Walter Winbome, Eliza beth City State University; Mrs. Adele Butts, North Caro lina Central University; anc Dr. Todd, Pembroke StaU University. Since UNC-Chape Hill does not have a regiona center, UNC-CH students wil participate in the program through the NCCU regiona Center. For more informatior concerning participation ir the program, contact one ol the regional center offices, 01 NCHMDP 966-2264-65. Dr. Allison reports that sin /w> wvti ii___ _ Uiv JUUUUC1 pi Ugldll, has enabled more than 20( students to progress through preprctfessional and orofes sional studies. "This prograrr represents a very meaningful effort toward realizing select ed NCHMDP long-range obje ctives to increase the numbei of minority and disadvantag ed persons trained and emplo yed in health careers, and tc improve the delivery and qua lity of health care services for minority and disadvantaged communities." In addition to the work-stu dy summer program, NCH MDP, through its central of fice and its regional centers, provides general health care ers information, information on available health training programs in North Carolina and elsewhere, and recruit ment-admission services for minority or disadvantaged st udents interested in health training programs. It also id entifies available financial aid resources, offers students co unseling and enrichment ex periences, and information on employment opportunities for minority health professionals.
