Since 2002, the RhPAP Awards program has celebrated rural Alberta’s health-care heroes and rural communities with a healthy dose of recognition.
The RhPAP Rhapsody Awards continue a long tradition of celebrating rural Alberta’s health-care heroes and rural communities. A play on our name, the Rhapsody Awards are designed to recognize the individuals, teams, and communities that make significant civic and health-care contributions within rural Alberta.
A community celebration
RhPAP supports communities to celebrate their Rhapsody Award recipients and their achievements in their home communities.
If your nominee is successful, RhPAP will work with the nominator and / or designated community members to honour the successful recipient at a community recognition event tailored to the community and recipient.
This recognition event will include a Rhapsody Award presentation, with a video profile of the recipient and their contributions to the health and well-being of their community.
RhPAP wants to help you celebrate

These Rhapsody Awards come with funding to support you to organize an event to celebrate the health professionals and volunteers who help keep your community healthy!
