NEMO AHEC

Not every disability is visible. Know science, no stigma.

Take a few extra seconds to watch for motorcycles. You never know, it could be one of us out there!

Appreciating some amazing people during National Nurses Week!

May is Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month! NEMO AHEC would like to bring attention and visibility to these riders. Keep the roads safe, be aware of your surroundings! Riding can be a great hobby to improve social, emotional, and physical wellbeing. And with this 62-mile Scavenger Hunt, it is a great way to support rural health and education in underserved communities!

Each year, thousands of people are diagnosed with cancers, including #cervical #cancer, caused by #HPV. #HPV infections can cause 6 types of #cancer. #HPV #vaccination could protect your patients from these cancers before they ever have a chance to develop. Check out this information from @CDC about #HPV diseases and #cancers. #AHEChpv http://bit.ly/2Rlw8jy

We are so proud to introduce you to Year 2 AHEC Scholar, Victoria Reick-Mitrisin! Victoria embodies the spirit of AHEC Scholars with her passion and ambition, and NEMO AHEC is excited to see the amazing things she does throughout her career in healthcare! "AHEC Scholars has been a great way to take an hour or two during a crazy week and do something that helps me grow, and re-energizes after a day of studying. Every experience has reminded me of why I went into a service-based profession, and has given me tools to better help my patients in the future" -Victoria
