tbirdfan45 Posted November 4, 2018 I'm a PA student who recently did a rural rotation in Alaska in a small village. After doing the rotation, I've found it to be very intriguing. I could definitely see myself working out here for a few years to make a difference, experience a new way of life, and do some damage on my student loans. However, seeing the responsibilities of some of the village providers in these villages, I know that they can be asked to do basically anything, which is a little intimidating seeing myself as a new grad here in a few months. I'm wondering if anybody has any experience working for a native cooperation right out of school. Have you had any sort of on-boarding process that helped you feel comfortable before being put out in the boonies on your own? Also, does anybody know what sort of loan repayment is available? I would appreciate any and all feedback that anyone may have. THANKS!
Moderator EMEDPA Posted November 4, 2018 Moderator AK as a new grad is certainly an option, but I would recommend working in a setting with a few other providers for the first few years before you look into solo positions.
