Health Care
Recruitment Weekend

One of the key objectives of the Chamber Health Care Resource Council (CHCRC) is to recruit and retain family physicians.

In order to achieve this objective, the CHCRC organizes and holds an annual Family Medicine Resident Weekend.  Throughout this weekend, they positively engage young physicians in training and promote the community as a welcoming, attractive leading edge centre of excellence with promising practice opportunities. The weekend also provides business connections for the physicians' partners to learn more about employment opportunities in their respective fields.

Over the past twelve years this event has been instrumental in residents' decisions to establish their family practices in the area.
