Clinical Rotations: The Eastern Shore AHEC rotations provide students a broad range of practice experiences in a supportive, professional community. AHEC rotations take place in small cities or rural locations. Students are assigned to preceptors/clinical instructors either by their program liaison or by the clinical education coordinator. The student's interests and preferences are taken into account in the placement location.

The rotation promotes understanding and management of the practical, medical and social problems encountered in daily practice in small cities or rural locations.

The design of the program relies on active communication between the State AHEC Program Office, the three Maryland AHEC Centers, the preceptor, communities of the respective Centers, health profession schools to encourage team-based strategies for determining health objectives, workgroup plans and proposed mechanism for change. In addition, the program addresses the advantages and challenges of providing health services to a rural community through a variety of experiences including interdisciplinary opportunities and community service.
