Abstract

Areas with a ratio of 100:1 or lower are found mainly in eastern Canada and Manitoba. These are areas where the number of registered nurses per capita is higher than the national rate. At the other end of the scale, regions with relatively few nurses per capita-with ratios greater than 200:1-predominate in the territories and the northern portions of many provinces. In general, higher numbers of nurses occur in locations throughout Canada where there are relatively high number of physicians and specialists.
