Some medical students at McGill University in Montreal are getting a firsthand look at what working in an Indigenous community is like.
It’s through a new program that includes a grassroots approach to healthcare.
“It consists of medical students in their third or fourth year coming here for a month at a time,” said Dr. Ojistoh Horn, the only fulltime family physician in Akwesasne, a catchment area of 14,000 people.
Ev Mailhot-Daye said it’s a lot different than any other training she’s received during her three years at McGill.
