Universidad Favaloro rural medical rotations

Overview

Forty-one sixth-year medical students from Universidad Favaloro participated in a mandatory final practical rotation program across eleven provincial hospitals in Santiago del Estero, Argentina, running from June 22 to August 28.

During the program, students engaged with the regional healthcare reality, noting specific challenges in rural settings such as resource management and the socioeconomic needs of patients. Students observed the necessity of finding alternative treatments when patients could not afford standard medical costs.

The rotation concluded in Fernández at the Hospital Zonal ‘Dr. Rudecindo del Valle Cazzaniga’. The program ended with a presentation to local authorities, including Mayor Yanina Iturre, regarding the public health challenges faced in areas distant from major urban centers.
