Integrated Clinical Governance Council (ICGC)

The Integrated Clinical Governance Council (ICGC) provides oversight for quality and safety across all C.A.R.E. Networks, directs key Clinical Governance functions (e.g., clinical risk, clinical services planning) and integration for cross-continuum design, supported by and aligned with corporate functions. It is chaired by the Chief Medical Officer and Chief Nursing and Allied Health Officer and includes all Vice Presidents accountable for clinical and quality processes. ICGC is responsible for the tools and processes which Island Health uses to guide decisions which define, monitor and enable quality of care.

ICGC will take place on the third Wednesday of every month from 1:00pm to 3:00pm. We are looking for 3 patient partners to sit as members of this council.

We may reach out to individuals after the posting has closed if further information is needed.
