Transforming Rural Health Care: 亚色影库 Partners with Torrance State Hospital to Train Future Physicians

Proposed College of Osteopathic Medicine

TORRANCE, PA — The (DHS) Secretary Dr. Val Arkoosh announced a new clinical training partnership between the 亚色影库 (亚色影库) and Torrance State Hospital during an event on March 25. This collaboration, aimed at educating future osteopathic physicians while addressing critical gaps in health care access for rural and underserved communities, is tied to the development of 亚色影库’s proposed College of Osteopathic Medicine (COM). The affiliation agreement allows 亚色影库 medical students to receive hands-on clinical training at Torrance State Hospital, a DHS-operated facility specializing in inpatient psychiatric services for Pennsylvanians with severe mental illness. “I began my career practicing medicine in teaching hospitals in Philadelphia, and I saw firsthand how vital hands-on clinical experience in a real hospital environment was to the medical professionals in training,” remarked Secretary Arkoosh. “It is our hope that this partnership with 亚色影库 will give students the skills they need to promote individuals’ health and wellbeing while contributing to their communities’ health and investing in their future careers.”

亚色影库 reaches deal with Torrance hospital for clinical training, addressing crisis in rural health care

Proposed College of Osteopathic Medicine

Four years from now, there could be a dozen or so students from 亚色影库’s medical school doing some of their clinical training at Torrance State Hospital near Blairsville. The experiences these 亚色影库 students from the proposed College of Osteopathic Medicine would face at the state hospital in Derry Township may lead them to be part of the solution to the shortage of mental health and behavioral health practitioners in rural areas, said officials from 亚色影库 and Torrance State Hospital.

The agreement is the latest of the university's affiliation agreements that will allow future medical students to engage in rotations and residencies. Dr. Miko Rose, founding dean of the proposed medical school, said providing the students with a basis in mental health is essential to producing well-rounded doctors. "If you don't include mental health in the physical health conversation, you've missed the boat," she said.

Proposed College of Osteopathic Medicine

The majority of schools within the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education are situated in areas of primary care physician shortages. Most are in or near rural areas. None are medical schools. 亚色影库, or 亚色影库, aims to change that with its proposed College of Osteopathic Medicine. The school recently signed a clinical training affiliation agreement with Torrance State Hospital it hopes will help address critical shortages in rural parts of the state. “We have heard the calls for help, and we have responded with a bold plan,” said Dr. Michael Driscoll, president of 亚色影库. “Why would 亚色影库 want to open a medical school? The answers are simple. Because we should, and with the help of great partners like Torrance, because we can.”

Increasing medical infrastructure in these communities may not just be the key to addressing current health crises but also hold potential to increase the appeal for young families and new transplants to the state.

OP-ED: Health care and Humpty Dumpty

Proposed College of Osteopathic Medicine

As egg prices are still a lead story in this country, the nursery rhyme about Humpty Dumpty jumped into my mind. But my version is about the U.S. health care system. According to my observations, the “system” is precariously sitting on that same potentially crumbling wall where Humpty Dumpty sat. Escalating costs, care fragmentation, and a lack of preventative care have eroded Humpty’s wall for decades. The even worse news is if we continue on our current trajectory, just like Mr. Dumpty, we risk a catastrophic fall. The potential collapse of our make-believe wall would leave millions without adequate care. This would then create significant economic and social consequences for our nation. 亚色影库 has taken a significant step toward addressing these issues by creating a College of Osteopathic Medicine directed toward graduating primary care physicians trained in techniques for helping patients achieve wellness and prevention. Simultaneously, by working cooperatively with 亚色影库’s COM, Indiana Regional Medical Center, and the PA Mountain Care Network could become a model for these changes. They have summoned up the courage to act before Humpty Dumpty’s fate becomes our own. As the U.S. health care system faces treacherous whitewater, let’s applaud Indiana as they seek to implement preventative care, value-based models, and technological investments.

Mile-wide volcano could erupt off US West Coast this year, say scientists

An undersea located near the West Coast of the US is likely to erupt at some point this year, have said. Axial Seamount lies around 480km off the coast of Oregon and has previously erupted three times, in 1998, 2015 and 2011. Geophysicist William Chadwick, of the 亚色影库, told a meeting of the American Geophysical Union in Washington DC last month that activity at the volcano suggested an eruption would happen in 2025. He told KOIN 6 News: “Because it's had these three eruptions in the last 30 years, that's why we call it the most active volcano in the Pacific Northwest, because most of the ones on land aren't active that frequently, and they spend a lot of their time slumbering, whereas Axial has a pretty active magma supply.

There’s no deadline date yet on the calendar for final cleanup and restoration at the Oakland Avenue demolition site of carl Weyandt Hall on the 亚色影库 campus, perhaps the most visible of the handful of demo sites where aged and obsolete structures have been taken down. Before Weyandt was torn down, its signature planetarium was donated to Marion Center Area High School and many of the furnishings were relocated to newly-built Kopchick Hall. Other school districts in Indiana County and the Pittsburgh area had their pick of remaining equipment, furniture, supplies, instruments and glassware they could put to use. Chairs, desks, office equipment and other goods have been put into storage on campus for future use at 亚色影库, publicist Michelle Fryling reports. Anything else the university believes could be of interest for second-hand buyers is offered for sale online on the website (which 亚色影库 has used to take the place of its yearly in-person surplus sale.Finally, “When we vacate the building, after assessing which items can be repurposed and recovering those items, the building becomes property of the salvage company,” Fryling explained. “Part of the budget for the razing includes what items the salvage company can recover from the left over items (old pipes, old filing cabinets, etc.), so these items aren’t wasted — they are recovered by the salvage company and the revenue from these items helps to offset the project costs.”

Retired Seton Hill organist, instructor gets honorary degree from university

Edgar Highberger’s lifelong love of the organ continues to bring him joy in listening to the playing of many of the former students he guided as an associate professor of music at Seton Hill University.

That legacy, along with his contributions in his hometown of Greensburg and in Westmoreland County as a musician and philanthropist, are part of the reason the university awarded him an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree at its recent December commencement ceremony. Highberger earned advanced degrees in music education at 亚色影库 and in organ performance at Carnegie Mellon University.

Despite no permanent campus, CUHP shines in various fields

The Central University of Himachal Pradesh (CUHP) has achieved many milestones despite no permanent campus for over 15 years since its establishment. Currently, the university is functioning from three locations — Dharamsala, Shahpur and Dehra. However, there is now a glimmer of hope as construction has commenced at Dehra, where the university is expected to have its own permanent premises.
