Abstract

The shortage of health professionals in rural and remote areas has been a serious concern. Rural healthprofessionals are constantly leaving for urban practice. The training and recruitment of health professionals whomay be prepared to serve rural communities for a lengthy period is a challenge if a nation is committed to theprovision of equitable health services to its rural population.
