The Importance of Rural Healthcare
Hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare entities are vital to rural communities. They provide residents of those communities with much needed healthcare options without the need to travel long distances. Staffing for healthcare can come from many avenues – one being homegrown talent. Check out the video featuring Minden natives, Dr. John (Andy) Craig and Dr. Cade Craig, discussing their start in the KHOP program and where they are now!
Video developed by Nebraska Rural Health Association:
Strong rural health IS a strong rural Nebraska. This is the exciting story of how Nebraska is harnessing the power of homegrown talent to fill health care shortages in communities across the state. Meet the Craig brothers in rural Minden, Nebraska.
