The tornado destroyed housing for University of Missouri medical students two years ago. Now, the hospital and the medical school have reopened the training site with housing, according to the report. The housing units, funded by Mercy Hospital Joplin, are two town-home units located three blocks from the hospital.
“Without this new housing, we wouldn’t be able to reopen Joplin as a training site for our students,” Kathleen Quinn, PhD, director of MU medical school’s Rural Track Pipeline Program, said in the report.
