ECHO Idaho
Project ECHO (Extension for Community Health Outcomes) uses an “all teach, all learn” model that empowers Idaho health care professionals to treat complex diseases with specialist-level expertise no matter where they practice.
With the click of a button, clinicians across the state can join a virtual, one-hour session that includes a brief lecture, patient case review, resource sharing and discussion. All sessions are free and eligible for accredited continuing education credits.
If you are a physician, physician assistant, nurse practitioner, nurse, pharmacist, psychologist, counselor, social worker or other health care or social service professional who wants to improve your skills, then ECHO trainings are for you.
