Real-Time Virtual Support is extending a warm welcome to Dr. Scot Mountain, who is joining the team as a new pathway lead. The pathway has been named Rural Outreach in Critical Care and Internal Medicine (ROCCi).

An initiative from UBC's Family Medicine Interest Group is giving pre-clerkship medical students the chance to shadow rural family physicians and experience life in rural British Columbia communities. In its third year, the Rural Medicine Community Experience brought 31 students to four rural communities where they witnessed firsthand the unique realities and deep patient relationships that define rural practice.
