THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF THIS YEAR ARE LANDMARK STEPS IN EDUCATING THE NEXT GENERATION OF PHYSICIANS. VCOM HAS NOW GRADUATED OVER 4,100 PHYSICIANS AND IS THE LARGEST SOURCE OF PHYSICIANS IN THE SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES. WHILE VCOM HAS GROWN INTO ONE OF THE LARGEST MEDICAL SCHOOLS IN THE (CONTINUED ON SCH O.) COUNTRY, EACH CAMPUS MAINTAINS THE FEEL OF A SMALL PRIVATE COLLEGE FOR THE STUDENT, WITH A DEDICATED FOCUS ON THE COMMUNITY, STATE, AND MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED REGION THAT THE CAMPUS SERVES.FROM THE ADMISSIONS PROCESS TO GRADUATE MEDICAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS, THE VCOM MISSION FOCUSES ON RURAL AND MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS IN STUDENT ACADEMIC PROGRAMS AND IN ALUMNI OUTCOMES. THE COMMITMENT TO RURAL HEALTH IS EVIDENT IN THE ADMISSIONS PROCESS, WITH 21% OF OUR STUDENTS COMING FROM RURAL COMMUNITIES OF LESS THAN 10,000 AND 46% FROM COMMUNITIES OF LESS THAN 30,000. DIVERSITY OUTCOMES ALSO DEMONSTRATE THIS COMMITMENT. ACROSS THE FOUR CAMPUSES, VCOM IS A LEADER FOR AFRICAN AMERICAN AND HISPANIC STUDENTS ENROLLED. PRESENTLY 62% OF VCOM GRADUATES NOW WORK IN MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES AFTER RESIDENCY AND 67% PRACTICE IN A TARGET AREA IN AN APPALACHIAN OR DELTA COUNTY OR CITY. VCOM'S PROVEN PHILOSOPHY OF TARGETING RECRUITMENT OF STUDENTS MOST LIKELY TO RETURN TO THE REGIONS OF OUR MISSION PROVIDES THE OPPORTUNITY FOR THOSE FROM RURAL AND MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES TO BECOME PHYSICIANS IN THOSE AREAS. THE COMPASS THAT GUIDES SUCCESS IS THE STRENGTH OF THIS MISSION AND A VISION FOR HEALTHIER APPALACHIAN AND DELTA REGIONS. IT POINTS TO A FUTURE WHERE EVERY PERSON HAS ACCESS TO GOOD MEDICAL CARE AND GOOD HEALTH, REGARDLESS OF THE SIZE OF THE COMMUNITY WHERE THEY LIVE, THEIR DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS OR THEIR SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS.VCOM'S INITIAL VISION WAS TO PROVIDE HEALTHCARE FOR SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA AND OTHER MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED REGIONS AND THE GREATER APPALACHIAN REGION AND TO PROMOTE JOINT BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH WITH VIRGINIA TECH. UNDER A PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN VCOM AND VIRGINIA TECH, THE COLLEGE OPENED ITS DOORS TO THE FIRST STUDENTS IN BLACKSBURG, VIRGINIA, IN THE FALL OF 2003 AND GRADUATED ITS FIRST CLASS IN 2007. THE VIRGINIA CAMPUS HAS NOW GRADUATED 2,561 PHYSICIANS.IN 2010, VCOM FOUNDED THE SECOND CAMPUS IN COLLABORATION WITH SPARTANBURG REGIONAL HEALTH SYSTEM TO ADDRESS THE HEALTHCARE SHORTAGES IN THE UPSTATE REGION OF SOUTH CAROLINA. THE FIRST STUDENTS BEGAN THEIR MEDICAL EDUCATION AT VCOM-CAROLINAS IN THE FALL OF 2011, AND THE CAMPUS GRADUATED ITS FIRST CLASS IN 2015. THE COLLEGE HAS THE MOST STUDENTS IN CAROLINAS ENROLLED IN FAMILY MEDICINE RESIDENCIES. THE CAMPUS HAS GRADUATED OVER 1,080 PHYSICIANS.AUBURN UNIVERSITY ADMINISTRATION LEARNED OF THE SUCCESS OF THE VCOM/VT COLLABORATION AND THROUGH A PUBLIC/PRIVATE COLLABORATION, OPENED A VCOM CAMPUS AT AUBURN UNIVERSITY. VCOM-AUBURN'S INAUGURAL CLASS BEGAN IN 2015 AND GRADUATED IN MAY 2019. VCOM AUBURN HAS OVER 457 GRADUATES TO DATE, WITH A LARGE NUMBER COMMITTED TO PRACTICING WITHIN THE STATE WHEN RESIDENCY IS COMPLETED. VCOM AND THE UNIVERSITY OF LOUISIANA MONROE (ULM) FORMED A PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP AND OPENED ITS FOURTH CAMPUS TO STUDENTS IN 2020. THIS NEW CAMPUS WILL ADDRESS A PHYSICIAN SHORTAGE IN LOUISIANA, WHICH CURRENTLY RANKS 39TH IN THE U.S. FOR PER CAPITA PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS. 81% OF THE STATE HAS BEEN DESIGNATED A HEALTH PROFESSIONAL SHORTAGE AREA BY THE LOUISIANA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, LEAVING ROOM FOR FUTURE VCOM GRADUATES TO MAKE A REAL DIFFERENCE FOR THE HEALTH OF ITS CITIZENS. 7941405 702671 RESEARCH:THE RESEARCH DIVISION AT VCOM SUPPORTS THE SCHOOLS MISSION TO PROMOTE RESEARCH TO IMPROVE HUMAN HEALTH BY ADVANCING RESEARCH COLLABORATION AND OPPORTUNITIES TO DEVELOP AND DISSEMINATE KNOWLEDGE.MEDICAL RESEARCH PROVIDES THE FOUNDATION FOR DISCOVERIES THAT WILL BENEFIT HUMAN AND ANIMAL POPULATIONS AROUND THE WORLD. IT CAN ANALYZE DISEASE TRENDS, RISK FACTORS, PROVIDE NEW TREATMENT OPTIONS, DEVELOP NEW MEDICINES, CREATE OR IMPROVE MEDICAL DEVICES, REDUCE HEALTH CARE COSTS AND PROVIDE NEW DIRECTIONS FOR PATIENT CARE. FOR THOSE SUFFERING FROM DISEASE, IN ONE WORD-RESEARCH PROVIDES HOPE. (CONTINUED ON SCH O.) NEVER BEFORE HAS THIS BEEN MORE EVIDENT OR IN THE SPOTLIGHT GLOBALLY THAN IN 2020 AS THE WORLD FACED NEW UNKNOWNS SURROUNDING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC.WHILE CARRYING OUT COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH IN THE COVID-19 ENVIRONMENT HAS BEEN CHALLENGING, CREATIVE SOLUTIONS BY FACULTY AND STAFF ALLOWED MANY VCOM PROJECTS THE ABILITY TO CONTINUE UNDER COVID-19 SAFETY RESTRICTIONS. A POSITIVE THAT HAS DEVELOPED AMID ALL THE TRAGEDY RELATED TO THE PANDEMIC IS THAT THE RESEARCH COMMUNITY HAS SEEN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT COMMIT CONSIDERABLE RESOURCES AND FUNDING TOWARDS COVID-19 RESEARCH.SINCE THE START OF THE PANDEMIC, FEDERAL AND PRIVATE AGENCIES HAVE BEEN ISSUING RESEARCH FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES FOCUSED ON DIAGNOSING, TREATING AND VACCINATING AGAINST COVID-19 AND ADDRESSING THE PANDEMIC'S IMPACT ON COMMUNITIES AND INDIVIDUALS. VCOM FACULTY AND STUDENTS CONTINUE TO ENGAGE IN A WIDE VARIETY OF RESEARCH INITIATIVES RELEVANT TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, INCLUDING BIOMEDICAL, PUBLIC HEALTH, EPIDEMIOLOGICAL AND MEDICAL EDUCATION RESEARCH TOPICS, PROVIDING KEY DATA AND SERVICES TO COMBAT THE PANDEMIC AND THE ONGOING EFFECT ON COMMUNITIES. VCOM HAS SEEN A NUMBER OF NEW RESEARCH PROJECTS FUNDED BY THESE EFFORTS AND IS PLEASED WITH THE SUCCESS OF RESEARCH DIVISION TEAM MEMBERS.DURING THE MOST RECENT YEAR, VCOM MADE IN EXCESS OF $1 MILLION OF SEED FUNDING AVAILABLE FOR ITS FACULTY AND PRODUCED MORE THAN 120 ACTIVE RESEARCH PROJECTS AT THE COLLEGE. THERE WERE 104 PEER-REVIEWED PUBLICATIONS GENERATED IN 2020, WITH MORE THAN 50 VCOM STUDENTS NAMED AS CONTRIBUTING AUTHORS. IN AGGREGATE, OVER 200 STUDENTS WERE INVOLVED WITH RESEARCH PROJECTS DESPITE PANDEMIC LIMITATIONS.VCOM'S SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM TO ENCOURAGE STUDENT RESEARCH, THE D.O. WITH RESEARCH DISTINCTION PROGRAM, HAS COMPLETED ITS SECOND CYCLE AND CONTINUES TO GROW RAPIDLY. THIS PROGRAM PROVIDES RESOURCES AND TRAINING TO ENCOURAGE STUDENTS TO BECOME CLINICIAN-RESEARCHERS. STUDENTS ACCEPTED INTO THE PROGRAM COMPLETE A DESIGNATED CURRICULUM AND DESIGN AND CONDUCT A RESEARCH PROJECT WITH A FACULTY MENTOR. UPON COMPLETION, STUDENTS ARE AWARDED THE RESEARCH DISTINCTION DEGREE DESIGNATION AT GRADUATION. VCOM AWARDED THE DEGREE TO TWO GRADUATES IN 2020 AND 12 GRADUATES IN MAY OF 2021. THERE ARE NOW 56 STUDENTS ENROLLED IN THE CURRENT PROGRAM.WITHIN OUR CAMPUS COMMUNITIES, LIKELY NO IMPACT OF VCOM RESEARCH EFFORTS WAS FELT MORE IMMEDIATELY AND DIRECTLY TO SO MANY THAN VCOM RESEARCH EFFORTS TO DEVELOP MYHEALTHTRACER. MYHEALTHTRACER IS A WEB-BASED APPLICATION DESIGNED TO TRACK CASES OF COVID-19 AT EACH CAMPUS. SINCE EARLY IN THE PANDEMIC VCOM FACULTY, STAFF AND STUDENTS HAVE USED THE WEB APPLICATION DAILY TO RECORD SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS, POSITIVE TEST RESULTS AND IF USERS HAVE BEEN VACCINATED. THE APPLICATION, WHICH CAPTURES CRITICAL COVID-19 EXPOSURE AND TESTING INFORMATION, HELPS TO PROVIDE ACTIONABLE INFORMATION TO COVID-19 OFFICERS AND ADMINISTRATION. ITS MONITORING OF CONSISTENT PARTICIPANT REPORTING OF HEALTH STATUS, ALONG WITH AUTOMATED OUTBREAK PREDICTION AND NOTIFICATION, HELPED ADMINISTRATION PLAN FOR A RETURN TO NORMALCY AT EACH CAMPUS. 1334932 292426 87837 OUTREACH:AN IMPORTANT PART OF VCOM'S PURPOSE AND MISSION IS ENSURING THAT ITS STUDENTS ARE "GLOBALLY-MINDED [AND] COMMUNITY-FOCUSED." VCOM'S GOAL OF SERVING THE UNDERSERVED DRAWS STUDENTS FROM ALL ACROSS THE UNITED STATES. OUR STUDENTS ARE COMMITTED TO BECOMING PHYSICIANS THAT SERVE THOSE MOST IN NEED. THIS IS PERHAPS MOST VISIBLE IN OUR ONGOING OUTREACH EFFORTS, BOTH IN THE APPALACHIAN AND DELTA REGIONS, AS WELL AS INTERNATIONALLY. THE OUTREACH PROGRAMS BUILT INTO THE CURRICULUM PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH REWARDING SERVICE EXPERIENCES IN SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES AND BEYOND. (CONTINUED ON SCH O.)THESE PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED TO ADDRESS HEALTHCARE DISPARITIES INCLUDING THOSE RELATED TO RURAL LOCATIONS, MINORITY POPULATIONS, POVERTY AND ACCESS TO PRIMARY CARE. AN EMPHASIS ON THE TEACHING OF PREVENTIVE CARE THROUGH OUTREACH EXPERIENCES ALLOWS VCOM FACULTY AND STUDENTS TO NOT ONLY TREAT PATIENTS, BUT ALSO GUIDE STUDENTS IN IMPROVING THE OVERALL HEALTH OF RURAL AND UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS, REINFORCING THE VCOM MISSION. TO SUPPORT THE STUDENTS' EFFORT TO FULFILL THE MISSION, VCOM WORKS YEAR-ROUND TO DEVELOP PARTNERSHIPS, RESEARCH ENDEAVORS, CLINICAL OPPORTUNITIES AND FACILITY IMPROVEMENTS TO ENSURE STUDENTS AND ALUMNI CAN FOLLOW WHERE THEY ARE LED.MEDICAL OUTREACH EXPERIENCES ARE A KEY COMPONENT IN EDUCATING STUDENTS TO MEET THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS IN CHALLENGING ENVIRONMENTS. THROUGH COMMUNITY OUTREACH, VCOM STUDENTS EXPERIENCE THE IMPACT OF PROVIDING CARE FOR PATIENTS WHO LIVE IN POOR SOCIOECONOMIC CONDITIONS. FROM THE TIME THEY COMMENCE THEIR MEDICAL EDUCATION, VCOM STUDENTS GAIN SKILLS IN PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICINE THROUGH OUTREACH ACTIVITIES IN THE COMMUNITIES AROUND THE CAMPUSES AS WELL AS REGIONALLY. BEGINNING IN THEIR FIRST YEAR, VCOM STUDENTS ARE ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN PUBLIC HEALTH, PARTICIPATING IN LOCAL HEALTH FAIRS, FREE SCREENING EVENTS, COMMUNITY HEALTH CLINICS, PREVENTION EDUCATION PROGRAMS, MINI-MEDICAL SCHOOLS AT RURAL HIGH SCHOOLS AND OTHER LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES WITHIN THE COMMUNITY, ALL WHILE RECEIVING INSTRUCTION FROM EXPERIENCED FACULTY AND STAFF. REGIONAL OUTREACH PROGRAMSMINI-MED SCHOOLS - A CORNERSTONE OF VCOM'S MISSION IS TO TRAIN THE NEXT GENERATION OF PHYSICIANS. "MINI-MEDICAL SCHOOLS," WHICH ALLOW RURAL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS A VIEW BEHIND THE SCENES INTO THE LIVES OF MEDICAL STUDENTS, ARE A KEY COMPONENT. VCOM STUDENTS, AS PART OF THEIR APPALACHIAN OUTREACH AND INTERPROFESSIONAL EARLY CLINICAL EXPERIENCES (IECE) TRAINING, ASSIST FACULTY IN CONDUCTING THE PROGRAM 14 FRIDAYS A YEAR. HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS ROTATE THROUGH SIX STATIONS, EACH STAFFED BY VCOM STUDENTS AND DEDICATED TO A COMMON HEALTH PROBLEM. THE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO ENCOURAGE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TO CONSIDER HEALTHCARE AS A POTENTIAL CAREER OPTION.SUMMER ENRICHMENT EXPERIENCE (SEE) - EACH SUMMER, VCOM HOSTS SUMMER CAMPS FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS, FROM RURAL AREAS AND AT-RISK POPULATIONS, WITH ONE WEEK FOR BOYS AND THE OTHER FOR GIRLS.

DESIGNED TO ENCOURAGE STUDENTS TO PURSUE CAREERS IN SCIENCE AND MEDICINE, THE SEE PROGRAM ALSO GIVES THEM AN APPRECIATION OF THE FUNDAMENTALS OF A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE.STEM OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOUTH - SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING AND MATH (STEM) ARE ESSENTIAL IN THE WORLD OF TODAY AND TOMORROW. TO PROMOTE INTEREST IN HEALTHCARE CAREERS AND SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES WITH STUDENTS FROM RURAL AND UNDERSERVED AREAS, VCOM STUDENTS AND FACULTY PROVIDE A NUMBER OF STEM PROGRAMS TO LOCAL SCHOOLS.INTERNATIONAL OUTREACH PROGRAMINTERNATIONAL OUTREACH EFFORTS DISTINGUISH VCOM AS HAVING ONE OF THE NATION'S OUTSTANDING MEDICAL SCHOOL GLOBAL HEALTH PROGRAMS WHILE SUPPORTING THE VISION AND MISSION OF THE COLLEGE. VCOM PROVIDES EXPERIENCE FOR FUTURE PHYSICIANS TO PARTICIPATE IN ONE-WEEK LONG INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL OUTREACH TRIPS FOR SECOND-YEAR STUDENTS AND FACULTY PHYSICIANS, 12 TIMES ANNUALLY. STUDENTS IN THEIR THIRD AND FOURTH YEARS ALSO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO PURSUE INTERNATIONAL CLINCICAL ROTATIONS.WITH FOUR YEAR-ROUND MEDICAL CLINICS AND HOSPITAL AFFILIATIONS IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, EL SALVADOR AND HONDURAS, COUPLED WITH EDUCATIONAL AFFILIATIONS WITH THE APPALACHIAN SCHOOL OF PHARMACY, THE NURSING PROGRAM AT BLUEFIELD UNIVERSY (AND OTHER PARTNERS), THE VCOM INTERNATIONAL CLINIC SITES PROVIDE A MOST UNIQUE EXPERIENCE. THESE EXPERIENCES FOCUS ON SUSTAINABLE PUBLIC HEALTH, COMMUNITY HEALTH AND INDIVIDUAL PATIENT CARE TO POPULATIONS IN NEED ALLOWING STUDENTS TO BECOME GLOBALLY- MINDED, COMMUNITY-FOCUSED PHYSICIANS. RAPIDLY EXPANDING INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH ALSO PROVIDES STUDENTS AND FACULTY OPPORTUNITIES TO USE APPLIED RESEARCH TO ENHANCE PREVENTION OF DISEASE AND PROMOTION OF BETTER HEALTHCARE PRACTICES. A RECORD 288 VCOM STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS DURING THE 2018-19 ACADEMIC YEAR. THESE PROGRAMS OFFER A VARIETY OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR FUTURE PHYSICIANS TO PARTICIPATE IN COLLABORATIVE CLINICAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS WHERE THEY MAY CONTRIBUTE TO VCOM'S MISSION THROUGH PATIENT CARE AND PREVENTIVE SERVICES. MEDICAL STUDENTS PARTICIPATING IN THESE TRIPS DEVELOP THE SKILLS TO ADDRESS HEALTHCARE NEEDS IN THE FACE OF POVERTY, ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS AND POLITICAL COMPLEXITY.IN THE WAKE OF COVID-19, INTERNATIONAL OUTREACH TRIPS WERE TEMPORARILY HALTED DURING 2020 FOR THE SAFETY OF VCOM STUDENTS, FACULTY AND STAFF AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITIES SERVED. VCOM CONTINUED TO SUPPORT THE INTERNATIONAL CLINICS THROUGH STUDENT FUNDRAISERS, DONATIONS OF SUPPLIES AND BI-WEEKLY VIDEO CONFERENCE MEETINGS. TO FURTHER CONTINUE SERVING AND HELP PLAY A PART IN COMBATING THE GLOBAL PANDEMIC, VCOM STUDENTS CHANNELED ADDITIONAL OUTREACH EFFORTS TOWARDS THE LOCAL COMMUNITY. OVER THE PAST YEAR, VCOM REGIONAL OUTREACH EFFORTS FOCUSED ON ORGANIZING AND IMPLEMENTING NUMEROUS DONATION DRIVES, DISASTER RELIEF AND COVID-19 VACCINE CLINICS HELD AT CHURCHES, SCHOOLS AND HEALTH CLINICS THOUGHOUT OUR SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES.PLEASE VISIT THE EDWARD VIA COLLEGE OF OSTEOPATHIC MEDICINE (VCOM) WEBSITE AT - WWW.VCOM.EDUFOR A MORE COMPREHENSIVE LOOK AT ALL OF OUR LATEST
