KU Medical Center Area Health Education Center

At this time the KU Area Health Education Center staff is working remotely while our physical offices in Kansas City, Pittsburg, and Hays are closed. We are still operating at normal capacity. If you need immediate assistance, please email ahecpitt@kumc.edu and someone will respond to you as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience. 

The KU Medical Center Area Health Education Center enhances the quality and accessibility of health care services in Kansas through partnerships with communities, health care professionals and organizations, educational institutions and other interested individuals and agencies.

Our services include:

• Promotion of careers in the health care field;
• Continuing education programming for physicians, nurses and allied health professionals;
• Community education and health screenings;
• Facilitating health research in the same communities confronting those issues; and
• Development and implementation of clinical opportunities for students in the health professions' programs.

With three offices located across Kansas, the KU Medical Center Area Health Education Center works to ensure all Kansans enjoy these services, whether they live in the state's most rural communities or the largest metropolitan areas.
