Brighton council will consider joining other local communities in expanding its Physician Recruitment Program by offering incentives to attract Nurse Practitioners to the community.
At its meeting Monday, council will be asked to sign off on a program offering $10,000, $5,000 per year, to a Nurse Practitioner for a commitment of two years of work serving Brighton patients.
The incentive could go as high as $25,000 in return for a five-year work commitment. Belleville and Quinte West already offer similar programs.
Brighton council meets Monday at 6:30 in council chambers on Alice Street.
