NHSC-approved clinical sites located
throughout the country within eligible
Health Professional Shortage Areas. The
purpose of the program is to increase
access to primary care services in
underserved communities and to assist
sites in their efforts to recruit providers
and become self-sustaining. In addition
to providing direct patient care at the
site where the officer is stationed, each
Ready Responder typically works with
the sites to develop various programs
and activities such as emergency
preparedness and response, patient
education, staff development, staff
recruitment, and sound business
practices. Moreover, they are specially
trained to deploy in the event of a local,
regional, and national emergency.
This application will be used by
NHSC sites to request the assignment of
a NHSC Ready Responder. The
document requires the applicant to
describe the needs in their community
and at their respective sites. The
application also asks the site to describe
the roles and responsibilities of the
prospective Ready Responder.
Completed applications will be
collected and reviewed by NHSC staff.
