Alberta Rural Health Week

May 26, 2020

During Alberta Rural Health Week, the Board of Trustees of the Lac La Biche Regional Health Foundation and the Regional Attraction and Retention Society take this opportunity to salute and thank the contributions of all healthcare providers and community volunteers who go above and beyond to help keep health care close to home. Rural health providers are powerful assets in our communities.

Not only do their healthcare skills and practices enhance the quality of our daily rural life, but these professionals also contribute to rural life on a more personal level. They have special relationships with their patients and community; they not only provide care, but are also family, friends, neighbors, and volunteers, and often teach and mentor future healthcare providers within our community.

Alberta Rural Health Week, May 25-29 we encourage residents to show appreciation for the contributions of our rural health providers and volunteers whose abilities enhance the quality of our lives. Share your messages and support using #ruralhealthmatters #LLBCTogether or simply place a blue heart in your window to say thanks!
