Thompson Community Based CPD Program for Rural Primary Care Providers 2019 to 2020

In order to address the unique clinical characteristics of each community, the Community-Based CPD Program is based in three locations (i.e. Steinbach, Morden/Winkler and Thompson also covering northern sites via MBTelehealth) and a community physician in each area who chair the sessions. These physicians identify the learning needs of their colleagues and work with the U of M CPD Medicine Program to organize CPD events.

The Community-Based CPD Program is supported by an unrestricted education grant from MB Healthcare Providers Network.
