Case Study: Campbell University
Medical Students Embrace PhytoRx as Part of Patient Care at Campbell University
The medical students at Campbell University, located in Buies Creek, NC, run a free clinic for local residents. One mission of this student-led clinic is the development of wellness programs for patients focusing on nutrition, fitness and behavioral education.

Several of the students and licensed providers completed the Healthcare Provider Training and are implementing the PhytoRx program with the help of Harnett County Family and Consumer Sciences agent Shannon Adcock.
Patients of the clinic whose diagnoses warrant a produce prescription are connected with a local food hub, the DUMA Food Pantry, that provides the participating patients with fresh produce. Shannon implemented the Med Instead of Meds course, with tastings at each class, to enhance the adherence to the program.
