The Rural Clinical School of Western Australia (RCSWA) is a Commonwealth-funded programme intended to increase the number of medical graduates interested in rural careers. The school is part of the network of rural clinical schools across Australia funded by the same federal Department of Health and Ageing workforce programme. It places medical students in their penultimate clinical year for an entire academic year in rural towns throughout Western Australia. In 2007, it became the first of Australian RCSs to enter a public-private university partnership. It is a collaboration between its founder, The University of Western Australia, and University of Notre Dame Australia. The students represent 25% of fifth year UWA and third year UNDA medical undergraduates. == Locations == The Rural Clinical School operates in most of the large country towns in Western Australia. It has its head office in Kalgoorlie, and students in Kalgoorlie, Esperance, Albany, Bunbury, Busselton, Carnarvon, Narrogin, Geraldton, Karratha, Port Hedland, Broome and Derby. These towns range from populations of 5,000 to 50,000. The students' clinical placements occur in general practices, local hospitals, community and remote clinics, Aboriginal medical services and other health facilities. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rural Clinical School of Western Australia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
