Welcome to ERMEP

ERMEP promotes and develops Distributed Medical Education (DME) in Eastern Ontario by facilitating the placement of medical students at appropriate sites.

We believe that the time the medical students spend in rural and regional practice will be the highlight of their training.  It will be an intense, exhilarating and demanding period of rapid professional and personal growth which should appeal to each and every student.
We believe that education in rural and regional areas is also integral to rural recruitment.  Training in these communities allows students to make an informed decision about opportunities beyond the academic centres.
