The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in teaching opportunities offered to urban and rural family medicine residents at the University of Manitoba. Methods: The 117 urban and rural family medicine residents were surveyed to quantify their interactions with medical students. Specific respondents were interviewed to provide context to the survey. Results: On family medicine, only 20% of rural residents reported frequent opportunities to informally teach, compared to 57% of urban residents. Similarly, 86% of urban residents reported organized teaching opportunities compared to only 5% of rural residents. Residents placed high value in receiving additional teaching opportunities. Conclusion: This study suggests that there are fewer teaching opportunities for rural family medicine residents compared to urban residents at the University of Manitoba. Given the small sample size, a larger study could determine whether this trend exists across the country. It will be incumbent on residency programs to ensure rural residents have the opportunities to become competent educators.
