It is situated in Worcester 100 km from Cape town and surroundings rural towns in a radius of 130 km. At Worcester, a regional hospital, we follow a hybrid educational model with specialist rotations and weekly longitudinal primary care exposure throughout the year. At the surrounding district hospitals we follow a "pure" longitudinal integrated model (LIM) where students are based for the whole year in a primary care setting and work under the supervision of a family physician.  All the students meet every Wednesday at Worcester for tutorials. One student unfortunately had to return to main campus for medical reasons. Six students were based at Worcester hospital and two students at Ceres District Hospital. We are very happy to report that all the students passed and that one student on the longitudinal model passed with distinction. Next year we will have 21 students, 17 in Worcester and 2 each  in the longitudinal model in Swellendam and Robertson.
