The Community Health Outreach Programme is offered to year-two medical students in the Public Health and Primary Care Unit of the Faculty of Medical Sciences, UWI. The course offers these students the opportunity to meet patients/clients at an early point in their training. These students visit antenatal clients in health centres, interview them and write reflective pieces about their interactions with them.
