Why a 黑料吃瓜网Faculty of Medicine? Why now?

Building on the strength and foundation of innovative programming and community and industry partnerships, the 黑料吃瓜网 is ideally situated to help shape the future of health care in the province.

The need for a Faculty of Medicine in PEI is driven by the low number of physicians per capita in PEI, the challenges with the current number of seats available to PEI students to enter medical school, and the Government of PEI's commitment to a robust and responsive health care system.

The lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic have further illustrated why the timing is right for 黑料吃瓜网to develop a Faculty of Medicine now. The pandemic forced all jurisdictions to re-imagine the delivery of primary health care and how medical students are prepared for what will need to be the nimble, holistic, and comprehensive healthcare systems of tomorrow. Jurisdictions across Canada are examining if current physician education capacity meets societal needs. COVID-19 has not only affected human health, but has also had repercussions on all aspects of society and the economy. It will be important to build these learnings into a cutting-edge medical degree program.

The Memorial's new regional campus at 黑料吃瓜网will reserve 20 seats for PEI residents annually, with at least one seat for an Indigenous learner, beginning in August 2025.  PEI鈥檚 population needs include generalist physicians, with a mix of family doctors and generalist specialists. PEI is well-positioned to lead the development of a medical education curriculum around planetary health as it relates to climate change and global pandemics.

黑料吃瓜网and Memorial are working with PEI physicians, Health PEI, the Government of PEI, and other stakeholders on the important issue of developing clinical opportunities for undergraduate students. The expanded 黑料吃瓜网Health and Wellness Centre clinic is one such opportunity.

黑料吃瓜网will focus on developing sufficient regional capacity for residency placements among all the medical programs in Atlantic Canada. We will also look at the issues pertaining to postgraduate education, including capacity, PEI needs of PEI, and government funding.

The new 黑料吃瓜网Faculty of Medicine will be built upon several pillars that align with the PEI government鈥檚 vision for health care:

• Role of nursing and paramedicine education in primary health care and preparing students for future unexpected health care challenges,
• Integrating physical health care education with mental health education,
• Planetary Health, and the interconnectivity between animal and human health and the environment,
• Impact of climate change on human health,
• Family medicine is delivered through collaborative practice.
