SEARCH experiences include profession-specific as well as multi-disciplinary clinical activities. Participants are placed in 4 - 6 week rotations at approved sites where they are matched with a preceptor and a community mentor. As a participant in the Idaho SEARCH program you'll be required to complete a community project that addresses a specific need in the clinic and/or community. You will meet with your preceptor and community mentor to determine a suitable focus for your project and will be expected to spend 20-25 hours outside of clinic time to complete the project. Click on the links below to view examples of past medical and dental community projects completed during SEARCH rotations.
Idaho SEARCH program awards include a $400 living & travel allowance and $20 per day up to 20 days for time spent in clinic. There are 30 rotation awards made annually.
We hope that completing such a rotation might encourage you to work in an underserved area when you begin your career! To apply, simply click on the application link below. The FAQ & Guidelines will answer most questions you may have and the site map will show you locations you can choose from.
