The Rural Ontario Medical Program (ROMP) is funded by the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care (MOHLTC) and operates as a learner placement program for Ontario’s six medical universities. ROMP arranges core and elective rotations for medical trainees across south central Ontario in one-on-one learning situations with physician preceptors. It is ROMP’s hope that, through creating “home-grown” physicians, we can help the communities ease the burden caused by the nation-wide physician shortage. As residents graduate and move towards their first practice, ROMP offers guidance and ongoing support to ensure the utmost success in their ventures.
