Hospital Partnership Forms In Rural Oregon

skylakes.org

A big city hospital and a small town version will team up to train doctors in Oregon. 

Oregon Health & Sciences University in Portland and Sky Lakes Medical Center in Klamath falls plan a joint venture on the Sky Lakes Campus. 

It will strengthen health care in the Klamath Basin and skills training for physicians planning to go into family practice.  Paul Stewart from Sky Lakes and OHSU's Jenny Mladenovic join us with highlights of the plans.
