Equal Access Auburn (EAA) started in collaboration with Equal Access Birmingham (EAB). At EAA, our mission is to provide accessible health care options and patient education to the underserved and uninsured populations in the Auburn/Opelika area of Lee County, Alabama, and students on campus.
EAA coordinates 1-2 volunteer events each month. Often, these are health fairs with HCOP student volunteers and faculty preceptors to provide blood pressure screenings, blood glucose screenings, cholesterol screenings, immunizations, patient education, and other health screenings and questionnaires.
The underserved and uninsured community needs dedicated volunteers, and EAA aims to ensure the needs are met by hosting free healthcare events. Being a member of the organization allows for direct patient interaction and inter-professional collaboration experiences that will be invaluable as it aligns with the future direction of pharmacy.
