Resident Physicians in the Legislature

As part of our leadership and advocacy development mandate, PARA is committed to fostering strategic relationships and positively impacting health care policy in Alberta. 

Resident Physicians in the Legislature (RIL) is a continuing advocacy event providing Alberta’s resident physicians the opportunity to participate in face-to-face meetings with elected representatives and senior government officials and to offer their distinct perspectives on issues relevant to health care delivery in Alberta. It also supports the CanMEDs roles of health advocate and communicator. 

RIL is traditionally held in spring of each year. 

Alberta’s resident physicians are committed to working with elected officials and health care policy makers to share our perspectives and help ensure the highest possible quality of patient care for all Albertans.
