Celebrating Decades of Achievements
An Overview of Rural Award Recipients
Our award recipients are inspirational trailblazers for creating positive change in rural healthcare. Looking over the lists below, you’ll see that each person has dedicated years and even decades to their rural and remote communities.
Many communities are underserved, and retention is often challenging. Celebrating those who establish rural roots and dedicate years of service is worth commemorating.
Every award presented is a personal badge of honour we hope others might aspire to attain.
