That’s just one aspect of the Rural and Remote Learner Experiences of students from the Rady Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Manitoba.
Melissa Balness, Managing Director of the program, provides details on how extensive the program is.
Balness indicated that work placements can vary between 4 and 12 weeks in length, depending on the program they are in.
These placements provide students with meaningful exposure to rural and remote practice.
You can learn more about the work placements by tuning in to Thompson Today this afternoon at 12:40 and 5:10.
