Education Sessions

On a monthly basis, both Rural Alberta North and Rural Alberta South provide academic sessions to discuss important issues relevant to family medicine. These sessions are generally organized by the residents themselves and involve presenters from a variety of specialities, clinical and full-time faculty. They are delivered from one or both Nodes or from the respective Family Medicine departments. Many academic sessions are recorded or videotaped for later access.

In addition, workshops are organized throughout the year and held in various communities. Topics include, but are not limited to, Evidence Based Medicine, Geriatrics, Palliative Care and Communication Skills. They are offered by one or both Nodes.

As well, both nodes  together through RPAP annually offer a Hemodynamic Instability Course to PGY2 residents.
