Rural health resiliency isn’t just a goal — it’s a necessity. The Rural Health Community is making it a reality by actively bridging the gap between rural hospitals and global technology pioneers. This isn’t off-the-shelf fixes – it’s about co-creating unique programs and solutions that are cost-effective and sustainable, specifically designed to meet the needs of rural healthcare community members.

Join Tina Burbine and Dr. Frase to discover these groundbreaking initiatives and program resources. Dr. Frase, a passionate advocate for rural health, will share firsthand how her organization has directly benefited from the Community’s programs, demonstrating real-world impacts on rural health sustainability and innovation. Bring these stories and lessons learned back to your own local communities to help further strengthen rural healthcare resiliency.
