Abstract: |
Historically, community hospitals have provided comprehensive care to rural Canada. Strategically located close to smaller neighbouring communities and far from urban centres, they have offered a full range of essential surgical, obstetrical and anesthetic services. Within these hospitals rural family physicians with advanced skills have sustained the system of rural health care as we know it. Can we imagine the alternative as we witness the erosion of these skills? |
