Newfoundland and Labrador invests $89,000 in mentorship program to fast-track foreign-trained physiotherapists

The Newfoundland and Labrador Government has allocated $89,000 over two years to develop a specialized mentorship program for internationally and Canadian-educated physiotherapists through the NLCP. This strategic investment addresses the province's critical physiotherapist shortage, particularly in rural areas, by creating a pathway for qualified international professionals to meet provincial licensing requirements. The program features targeted learning modules to bridge education gaps and provides essential Canadian workplace experience while simultaneously strengthening mentor resources. The initiative aims to improve healthcare accessibility while creating sustainable career opportunities for international talent in Newfoundland and Labrador.
