Mission

Mac-CARE arranges high quality educational opportunities in community and rural areas by providing funding for learner accommodations and/or travel during the rotation period. Arrangements are made for CORE rotations four weeks or longer in the Niagara Regional Campus, Waterloo Regional Campus, Brant Six Nations Clinical Education Campus and Halton Clinical Education Campus.

Goals

For McMaster medical students and residents, the overall goal of the Mac-CARE Program is to give learners exposure to community and rural practice outside of Academic Health Science Centres:

  • To enable learners to develop a better understanding of issues related to community and rural practice; and
  • To enable learners to experience community and rural practice as a possible career choice
