Summary:	THOROLD - Facing an exodus of health care workers as the baby boomer generation slips into retirement, the region is poised to start reimbursing post-secondary tuition to attract new recruits.

George Marshall expressed concern that "in 10 years we're going to be buying them for big dollars."
