The annual British Columbia (BC) Rural Health Conference (RHC) creates an intimate learning space for new and veteran rural physicians and allied health professionals to network, share knowledge, and update and learn new skills. During the conference, RCCbc presents the BC Rural Health Awards to recognize and honour rural doctors and communities for their inspiring contributions to improving the health of rural British Columbians. The conference is planned and executed in collaboration with the University of British Columbia Continuing Professional Development and funded by the Joint Standing Committee on Rural Issues.
“A "must attend" for me each year. My people! 😊”
