    Author: Wadman MC, Clark TR, Kupas DF, Macht M, McLaughlin S, Mize T, Casaletto J, Muelleman RL.
    Journal: Acad Emerg Med; 2012 Nov; 19(11):1287-93. PubMed ID: 23167861.
    Abstract:
    Rural emergency departments (EDs) in the United States are less likely to be staffed with emergency medicine (EM) residency-trained and American Board of Emergency Medicine (ABEM)-certified physicians than urban EDs. Rural EM clinical experiences during residency training have been suggested as a strategy to encourage future rural practice, but past Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Residency Review Committee for Emergency Medicine program requirements and a lack of familiarity with rural rotations in the EM graduate medical education (GME) community have limited their availability. To provide a template for the development and implementation of a rural EM clinical experience, Kern's six-step approach was followed.
