The rural program initiated a new assessment program for residents in year one and implemented a<br />

new competency-based curriculum.<br />

The rural program has worked to ensure a successful transition from the Rural Physician Action Plan<br />

(RPAP) to AHS management in respect to establishing operational requirements (i.e. creation of<br />

procedures, recruitment of staff, finalization of budget, and comprehensiveness of communication).<br />

Rural-based Family Medicine Residency Program<br />

Incorporation of a six-month second year rural family medicine rotation and an enhanced approach to<br />

faculty development, engagement, and support for rural preceptors is underway.<br />

The rural family medicine program is working to update its website content and design to align with the<br />

main <strong>DFM</strong> website (calgaryfamilymedicine.ca).<br />

The Enhanced Skills (ES) Program is comprised of nine individual programs. This year, the program<br />

welcomed 19 residents into six speciality areas.<br />
