More health care training available at local post-secondary campuses

The province is expanding its Learn and Stay Grant to nurses, paramedics, and laboratory technologist post secondary programs to underserved areas of the province.  Eligible students will receive full grants for tuition, books, and other educational costs. If they stay in the community where they went to school and practice there, they will have no debt from their education.  Grant applications will open in the spring for the fall semester.
