Eighteen college students from six undergraduate schools across Nebraska will spend the first week of January at the University of Nebraska Medical Center learning about the growing diversity in Nebraska and the health professional\u2019s role in providing culturally competent health care.<\/DIV>
\n
 <\/DIV>
\n
\u201cThe workshop will provide a general overview of the growing cultural diversity in our state,\u201d said Liliana Bronner, program coordinator with the Rural Health Education Network. \u201cStudents will gain a historical perspective of culturally diverse health care and apply concepts they learn through standardized patient scenarios.\u201d<\/DIV>
\n
 <\/DIV>
\n
During the weeklong workshop, Jan. 2-7, students will learn about differences and similarities among ethnic populations, what factors determine health disparities and how to be culturally responsive. This workshop was first offered four years ago through funding from the healthcare cash fund.  The program is now supported in part through the Rural Health Education Network and Area Health Education Center (AHEC) funds from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), a federal agency under the Department of Health and Human Services.   <\/DIV>
\n
 <\/DIV>
\n
The students will also work in small groups and research a clinical issue affecting underserved populations. On the final day of the workshop students will present their findings at a student forum.<\/DIV>
\n
 <\/DIV>
\n
Many of the students are from a rural community and have said they would like to practice in a small town. Areas of interest expressed by the students include medicine, pharmacy, and physician assistant.<\/DIV>
\n
 <\/DIV>
\n
After the weeklong workshop, the students are required to complete a 9-12 hour practicum, with a minimum of three visits, in a clinic setting that benefits an underserved community.<\/DIV>
