Program Description: By aligning students, educators, partners, and the community through a “community-dependent” model, we will create an inclusive and collaborative environment for innovative learning, healthcare and research. Roseman is building on its healthcare mission to advance health care education through its innovative educational model and to positively impact the health, education, and wellness of the communities it serves by launching a new kind of medical school in one of the most diverse and dynamic communities in America.

Services Offered: Our medical students will join students from Roseman’s Nursing, Pharmacy, and Dental programs working within urban and rural areas and addressing Nevada’s health inequities and lack of access to care through GENESIS. GENESIS is an educational, research, community development and healthcare delivery system. GENESIS reconceptualizes the health aligned sectors – healthcare, public health, and social services – as a coordinated health ecosystem focused on the home. GENESIS links households’ health care and social needs to a student and provider. This model allows students and providers to track patients’ social determinants of health and provide them direct and immediate access to care.
