Understanding rural pharmacists' perspectives: lived experiences and insights associated with rural recruitment and retention
CONCLUSION: Rural pharmacist recruitment and retention is complex, requiring a multi-pronged approach to implement practical solutions. Given this complexity and the unique features of each rural community, solutions require whole-of-community ownership to create innovative solutions. Recognition of specific advantages and challenges can address key driving factors for pharmacist recruitment and retention in rural communities.PMID:38494593 | DOI:10.22605/RRH8687 (Source: Rural Remote Health)

Epub 2024 Feb 20.ABSTRACTProposals to establish pan-Canadian licensure for physicians have broad support amongst medical groups to address physician shortages in underserved rural communities. The concept has also elicited concern from some stakeholders that its implementation could exacerbate rural physician workforce shortages by prompting an exodus of rural physicians to urban centres. An environmental scan of reports from key medical groups published within the past 10 years was conducted to determine factors influencing rural physician practice pat...
