Outreach
UAMS is making a difference in the lives of Arkansans throughout the state every
day, thanks to the Area Health Education Centers and Center for Rural Health, which provide patient care and
act as training sites for students in medicine, nursing, pharmacy and allied
health professions, as well as medical residents specializing in family
practice. UAMS also serves communities around the state through Kids First, a
network of day programs for children with serious health and developmental
needs. Another UAMS early intervention effort is UAMS Head Start in Pulaski
County, serving more than 1,000 children at over 30 neighborhood centers. UAMS’
Donald W. Reynolds Institute on Aging has several satellite offices around the
state, guaranteeing quality health care for the state’s older population.
