DLRI Housing Policy

The rural medical education offices at the UofC and UofA work closely with Rural Health Professions Action Plan (RhPAP) to secure housing for rural rotations and have created a harmonized housing policy. Accommodations are provided for learners like yourself, through a shared housing model, to support your educational experience through continuity of community.
