How is a return-of-service commitment secured between a Free Tuition candidate and a specific community?
In order to secure a position, there must be agreement between the candidate and the community about his/her return-of-service commitment. Candidates must ask the community contact to complete and sign the Addendum to the Return-of-Service Contract, thus confirming that all parties (i.e., physician, community/facility/agency and Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care) are agreeable to the return-of-service commitment being served in the particular community, and that such service will commence within six months of completion of training. The Ministry will not approve a return-of-service commitment prior to receiving a copy of the Addendum signed by the candidate and an appropriate community contact.
