The Healthcare Travelling Roadshow is seeking healthcare students and recent graduates to help recruit the next generation of rural healthcare professionals. 

Travel with a multidisciplinary group of healthcare students and graduates to showcase career opportunities to rural high school students, and explore rural BC and engage with local community stakeholders and healthcare professionals.

  • May 1 - 7:  Okanagan Roadshow (Summerland, Oliver, Osoyoos) 
  • May 1 - 7:  Bulkley Nechako Roadshow (Hazelton, Houston, Francois Lake, Grassy Plains, Burns Lake, Fraser Lake)

The Healthcare Travelling Roadshow was conceived as a grass roots initiative to address rural healthcare workforce shortages. The provincial initiative has grown to include several regional trips. Since its inception in 2010, the roadshow has connected with more than 10,500 high school students in 56 communities throughout BC. 

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 the Rural Education Action Plan.
