This past Saturday, NEMO AHEC piloted a program focusing on the careers of first responders. Students across the region got to look in-depth at these career paths while also getting to talk directly with staff at the Adair County Ambulance District and Kirksville Fire Department. Students also got to take a first-hand look at the commonly used equipment on an ambulance rig and fire truck. April Dobrinkse from the Adair County Health Department then gave a wonderful presentation on Stop-the-Bleed training. Participants were able to practice packing a wound and applying tourniquets, equipping them with life-saving skills. Students were then given simulated car accident scenarios, which they had to work together to come up with the correct treatment plan as a first responder on scene.
Thank you so much to the Adair County Ambulance District, Kirksville Fire Department, the Kirksville Area Technical Center, our very own AHEC Scholar Jenna, and the Adair County Health Department for providing volunteers and invaluable experiences and knowledge to our local students!

Great highlight on Mid-MO AHEC!

Great highlight on Mid-MO AHEC!

This week, we’re proud to highlight Tim Shockley, director of Mid-MO AHEC , located at Phelps Health in Rolla, Missouri— and administrative project director of the South-Central Missouri Rural Residency Program.

Tim joined MidMOAHEC in 2020 as clinical education coordinator and has since advanced in a leadership role supporting healthcare students across rural Missouri.

A former high school social studies teacher and school counselor, Tim brings a strong background in education, mentoring, and workforce development.

“What excites me most about AHEC,” Tim says, “is the opportunity to make a lasting impact at the intersection of education, healthcare, and community. Every clinical rotation we schedule, every workshop we host, and every student we mentor is a step toward a stronger healthcare system. It’s not just program work — it’s mission work.”

Last week we had 37 students from six different counties participate in our annual M*A*S*H Camp hosted at the Scotland County Hospital!
