RPAP provides Alberta’s rural physicians and communities with a healthy does of recognition.
Each year, RPAP selects recipients for the Alberta Rural Physician Award of Distinction and the Alberta Rural Community Physician Attraction and Retention Award.
The Alberta Rural Physician Award of Distinction
The Alberta Rural Physician Award of Distinction was created in 2002 to recognize the contributions of all rural physicians, especially those ‘unsung heroes’ who provide Alberta rural communities with outstanding medical services and who make huge contributions to medical practice and their communities.
The Alberta Rural Community Physician Attraction and Retention Award
Created in 2007, the Alberta Rural Community Physician Attraction and Retention Award recognizes a rural Alberta community that has best developed innovative and collaborative approaches and solutions resulting in successful physician attraction and retention in their area.
