South Arkansas Family Practice Residency Program The Faculty The Benefits The Curriculum The Application ... Back to AHEC. Program Philosophy The central goal of the Family Practice Residency Training Program at El Dorado is to give residents the highest quality of medical education, while delivering sensitive and caring health care to patients from a wide variety of backgrounds. While you spend most of your clinical time in the residency's Family Medicine Clinic under family physician supervision, you also train with physicians whose practices are sub-specialty oriented. In this way, you learn the importance of the relationships of family physicians to those in other specialties. The Residency Our program is located in the fourth smallest medical community of any residency program in the United States. We think that is to your advantage! Each July 1st, five residents enter the program with a three-year commitment for a total of 15 residents in training at any given time. Each resident receives faculty supervision and participates in a collegial system of learning and teaching. Facilities Through AHEC South's wide variety of practice settings, from rural clinic to regional referral center, you experience the many facets of family practice.

Russian Exchange Program Return to the AHEC table of contents A $200,000 grant from USAID and American International Health Alliance (AIHA) supported Russian international health exchange programs in the statewide UAMS AHEC network. Clinical skills training was conducted at the UAMS campus in Little Rock, with additional workshops hosted by Arkansas Foundation for Medical Care, the Arkansas Department of Health, and other community partners. Activities are delivered in Russia at the Volgograd Medical Academy (VMA). In March, UAMS, AIHA and VMA hosted a conference on the "Role of the Primary Care Physician in TB Prevention and Control" in Volgograd. Fourteen US and Russian physicians presented primary care experiences and recommendations for management of TB. Collaborating with UAMS were the Arkansas Foundation for Medical Care, the Lowell Medical Clinic, and the Arkansas Department of Health. In April, three VMA nurses received additional training at AIHA sponsored primary care nursing workshops in St. Petersburg. In Volgograd in May, three Arkansas family physicians provided skills training on techniques for clinical exams. While in Volgograd, the Arkansas group, including WWII veterans invited to meet Russian WWII veterans, participated in Victory Day ceremonies as guests of the Governor and Mayor. The Honorable Nikolay V. Pukolov, Consul of the Embassy of the Russian Federation, also recognized the accomplishments of the UAMS/ Volgograd partnership on a May visit to Little Rock.

The School's Nondiscrimination Policy About the School The School of Social Work, established in 1965 as part of the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, became part of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 1975. The School began as a graduate program, the only MSW program in the state. Our BSW program, now in candidacy for accreditation by the Council on Social Work Education, began in 1998. The School's mission is "to prepare practitioners who will empower people and communities to meet the challenges of poverty, social and economic injustice, urbanization, and rural isolation, and who will serve oppressed and vulnerable people." The School pursues this mission through providing undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education, through the engagement of faculty and students in community service, and through adding to the practice knowledge of the profession. In support of our mission, we see the School, its faculty, and its students as an important resource to the communities where we offer our program and to the state as a whole. Impelled by our profession's commitment to make social institutions more humane, we seek opportunities to collaborate with public human and community service systems. Current examples include our participation in the Partnership for Public Child Welfare, a major child welfare project in DCFS Areas III and VI, the Hispanic University-Community Partnership project, and the work of MidSOUTH Center on preservice and inservice training for public child welfare workers and supervisors.

52. BE AWARE OF A NEW KIND OF FLOOD Office in 1998. Now, our Do Not Call program has restored privacyto thousands of arkansas families, The Attorney general said. http://www.ag.state.ar.us/consumer/ca138.htm

For release Friday, October 5, 2001 CONTACT : Michael Teague 682-0517 or 1-800-482-8982 LITTLE ROCK - The Attorney General today thanked consumers of Arkansas for their strong support of his Do Not Call Program.  "This program is designed to keep unwanted telemarketing calls from invading your privacy, and we are pleased to report that more than 25,000 Arkansas residents have sent in their applications to be placed on the Do Not Call list." "I am also happy to announce today that the initial fee of $10.00 has been reduced to $5.00," The Attorney General stated.  In 2000, when the "Do Not Call" program began, the initial joining fee was $10.00 for one year’s service and $5.00 to renew the service the following years.  The joining fee will now only be $5.00 per year and $5.00 to renew.  Those who have already paid the $10.00 joining fee will have their membership extended an additional 12 months at no cost.  In 1999, the Attorney General drafted legislation designed to reduce the number of telephone solicitations directed at Arkansas consumers.  Act 1465 of 1999 was overwhelmingly passed by the General Assembly and became Arkansas Consumer Telephone Privacy Act, codified as Ark. Code Ann. § 4-99-401.  The General Assembly specifically found unrestricted telemarketing to be an invasion of privacy.  Many consumers had expressed outrage over the proliferation of intrusive nuisance calls to their homes from telemarketers.  "Telemarketing was the number-one complaint in the Attorney General’s Office in 1998.  Now, our "Do Not Call" program has restored privacy to thousands of Arkansas families," The Attorney General said.Â

Research shows that public investments in education and development are more than seven times greater during the school-aged years ($5,410 per child) than during the early learning years ($740 per child). The years between birth and age 5 are the most important for a child's brain growth and development. During this period children are adjusting and becoming more familiar with the world around them. The actual growth of the brain occurs at this time and a foundation for learning has begun. It is during this time that a child's education and quality of care has the most impact. A RKANSAS Highlights of the State The School Readiness Initiative Partnership has established an outstanding coalition of state and non-profit agencies. This partnership has defined and targeted Arkansas School Readiness Indicators consisting of Ready Children, Ready Families, Ready Schools and Ready Communities. These indicators will be tracked regularly over time at state and local levels. A Getting Ready For School data report and a Kindergarten Readiness Checklist brochure have been published identifying the indicators for the state. Policy Issues * Act 49 of 2004 declared that $40 million go to preschool in the new funding formula for Arkansas' educational system.

To accomplish the goals of evaluating TEA implementation across the state and its effects on recipients and their families, we will conduct an evaluation with two main components: a process study and an outcomes study. The process study will address the implementation of the program at both the state and local level. Through interviews with multiple state and local respondents, client focus groups, and observation of program activities, we will document the progress of TEA implementation and how it has varied across counties in the state. We will select a random sample of counties to include in the process study, ensuring that we include counties that accurately represent the diversity of the State of Arkansas.
