Rural Anesthesia Refresher Course is organized by The University of British Columbia (UBC) and will be held from Nov 27 - 29, 2026 at Pinnacle Hotel Harbourfront, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Description:
After many years as the Refresher Course for Family Practice Anesthesia, the program is evolving to reflect the changing landscape of rural anesthesia care. Beginning this year, the course will be known as the Rural Anesthesia Refresher Course, welcoming both family practice anesthetists and specialist anesthesiologists who provide anesthesia care in small and rural communities.
The course remains grounded in the practical, case-based learning that FPAs value while creating new opportunities for shared learning, collaboration, and the exchange of real-world experience among all physicians delivering rural anesthesia care.
Whether you're looking to gain new insights, refine your clinical skills, or expand your professional network, the Rural Anesthesia Refresher Course offers an opportunity to ensure you’re equipped to deliver the highest quality anesthesia care.
