Healthcare Travelling Roadshow
The Healthcare Travelling Roadshow takes a multidisciplinary group of health care students to rural communities across BC to showcase career opportunities to high school students.
Developed in 2010 by Dr. Sean Maurice with the Northern Medical Program as a grass roots initiative, the provincial initiative has connected with more than 12,000 high school students in 68 BC communities. In 2016, the Roadshow expanded to the Southern Medical Program and presents to communities within the Interior Health region.
The Healthcare Travelling Roadshow is delivered in partnership with the University of Northern British Columbia, UBC Faculty of Medicine, Northern Medical Programs Trust, Interior Health, and Rural Education Action Plan. To learn more about the provincial program, visit the Roadshow homepage.
