Date: March 30, 2023
Time: 12:00-1:00 p.m. (ET)

There is a pressing need to support the health care workforce in order to strengthen and restore high-quality, safe health care for everyone in Canada. Providers who work in northern, rural and remote communities have unique challenges and associated support needs, related to factors such as fewer onsite team members; geographic remoteness and associated weather and travel challenges; access to fewer providers, specialists and facilities, and to less equipment; a broader scope of practice compared with their urban counterparts; and a patient population that is — on average — more complex compared with patient populations in urban centres.
