Description

Family Health Care, a community health center, partners with Ferris State Pharmacy, Ferris State Dental Hygiene and University of Michigan Dentistry to provide unpaid clinical and nonclinical rotations and assignments. With these partnerships, Family Health Care hopes to teach students about community health services, help them appreciate the diverse cultures of patients that are served, and recruit these students to become long-term employees after they graduate. Family Health Care has six locations in Northwest Michigan (Lake, Newaygo, Mecosta, Missaukee and Wexford counties).

Michigan Health Council does not administer all of the programs in this database. Please see the "organizations involved" above to learn who you should contact for more information.
