The purpose of Project ECHO Nevada is to increase the capacity of health care and education professionals to support the health, well-being, & education of all Nevadans. This is accomplished through collaborative virtual learning sessions where professionals can connect with interdiscplinary teams of experts for case consultation and continuing education. Our goal is to offer direct access to expertise as an alternative to costly travel and long waits for patients and families who require specialty care and/or services.
