Because your voice matters.

Help Put Patients at the Heart of Interior Health Care!

Posted

You may have noticed a number of new opportunities in the Interior region on our Engagement Opportunities page. We have seven different opportunities across the Interior aimed at putting more focus on patient-and family-centred care.

Interior Health is putting patients at the centre of their health care decision making. The health authority needs your help to build a three-year strategic plan which reflects the needs of the people living in the region.

Seven engagement sessions will be taking place across the Interior in order to foster conversations at the local level. Join the discussion and make your voice heard – your input will be used to help develop the organization’s strategic plan.

Sign up to volunteer today and help improve health care in your area:

Where those of us in the room may have debated policy or wording, patient voices made sure patients were top of mind. And as a result, significant improvements were made to simplify something that was otherwise complex. Patient voices at the table bring us back to reality in terms of what we are trying to achieve.
