One of our students in the WARM(WI academy of Rural Medicine) program, Vasu Rishi, worked with Northview Eye to complete a project for his community health engagement work! He worked with the Doctor and staff to create a survey for parents to try and understand pediatric barriers to children wearing glasses. He then presented his topic to us and his preceptors!
