tbirdfan45 Posted November 4, 2018 Share 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator EMEDPA Posted November 4, 2018 Moderator Share Posted November 4, 2018 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.
