Bear Grylls, DOs in West Virginia have got you covered. Thanks to a $25,000 grant from the Encova Foundation, the West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine's Wilderness Medicine Elective will continue preparing future osteopathic physicians to respond to emergencies, adapt in resource-limited settings and care for underserved communities across Appalachia. Programs like this help ensure tomorrow's physicians are ready to serve patients in every corner of their community. #OsteopathicMedicine #FutureDOs #RuralHealth #MedicalEducation #Appalachia #HealthEquity
