May 26 – May 30
Alberta Rural Health Week 2025
Let’s celebrate rural Alberta’s Healthcare Professionals
May 26 – 30, 2025 is Alberta Rural Health Week: a great opportunity to honour the contributions of the rural Alberta healthcare providers and community volunteers who help keep health care close to home.
Rural healthcare providers are valuable resources in their communities. They improve the quality of life in rural areas with their healthcare skills and practices, and they also make personal contributions to the community. These professionals have special relationships with the people they serve and are not only healthcare providers, but also friends, family, neighbors, and volunteers. Moreover, they often take on the role of teaching and mentoring future healthcare providers in their communities.
During Alberta Rural Health Week, we encourage communities to show appreciation for the contributions of the rural health providers whose abilities enhance the quality of life in rural Alberta.
Alberta Rural Health Week is also an opportunity to say thank you to the local volunteers who go above and beyond to support healthcare and healthcare providers in their communities.
