Participating in a rural rotation is more than just a great learning opportunity; it is a real experience that includes community lifestyle, culture and local outdoor pursuits.

Rotation funding is available to provide assistance for accommodation and travel costs.  Criteria for funding:  Family medicine resident rotations* must be a minimum of four months and specialty resident rotations must be a minimum of one month.  Applications must be made through the ROMP office.

*Family medicine residents doing a specialty elective are not eligible for funding unless they have completed 4 months of family medicine in a ROMP community.
