Abstract Background Health Human Resource HHR ratios are one measure of workforce supply and are often expressed as a ratio in the number of health professionals to a sub-set of the population. In this study we explore national trends in HHR among physical therapists PTs across Canada. Methods National population data were combined with provincial databases of registered physical therapists in order to estimate the HHR ratio in 2005 and to establish trends between 1991 and 20o5. Results The national HHR ratio was 4.3 PTs per 10 000 population in 1991 which increased to 5.0 by 2000. In 2005 the HHR ratios varied widely across jurisdictions however we estimate that the national average dropped to 4.8
