“Land O’Lakes is a farmer-owned cooperative with presence in over 10,000 rural communities. Healthcare infrastructure is vital to farm families and businesses in these rural communities. Over the next five years, 53% of doctors in rural areas plan to retire, leaving a devastating gap in services and care, and 20% of America’s rural hospitals are at risk of closure. Rural America needs trained doctors and an infrastructure to access them easily. Transforming rural healthcare and connecting America is a huge challenge. Together, we can move the ball forward by expanding access and improving conditions and outcomes for patients in rural America. We’re working to develop and support essential policy reforms dealing with the growth of rural residency programs, affordable medical schools in rural areas and the expansion of telehealth services.” Tina May, Chief of Staff and VP of Rural Services at Land O’Lakes Tina will discuss the rural health workforce at the Transforming Community and Rural Healthcare 2024: Inspiring Partnerships and Scaling Collaborative Impact symposium on Oct. 21–22. https://mayocl.in/407KY0I Register today to hear from Tina and other experts about pressing healthcare issues facing rural America. https://mayocl.in/407KY0I #ruralhealthcare #ruralheathsymposium #ruralheath
