Healthy Outcomes: Texas A&M University Naresh K. Vashisht College of Medicine: Building the Hill Country’s Rural Healthcare Workforce
Investing in the Next Generation of Healthcare Professionals for Llano, Mason, and Gillespie Counties
By investing in every stage of education, the Texas A&M Vashisht College of Medicine is building a sustainable healthcare workforce for the Hill Country. These initiatives are cultivating a stronger, more resilient healthcare system for the Hill Country — one inspired student, one classroom, and one community at a time.
The philosophy behind the Create Healthy – Texas A&M Vashisht College of Medicine partnership is that increasing the number of healthcare providers choosing to practice in rural Hill Country communities starts early and starts close to home.
“Regional partners like Create Healthy are an important lifeline for our program. Create Healthy’s support puts medical students in Llano, Mason, and Fredericksburg clinics and practices and brings healthcare fairs to life for young people. The impact happens in the Hill Country. The funds stay local and help build pathways for tomorrow’s healthcare providers.”
