The goal is to form a partnership with patient partners who can assist us in driving patient centered care in the Emergency Departments. The hope is that patients can direct us using their lived experience to drive change which improves patient experience in the emergency departments.
The Emergency Services Network (ESN) Core Council meets every second month for two hours. The council membership consists of Interior Health (IH) leadership, frontline staff, external stakeholders and patient partners.
The ESN Core Council provides recommendations to the ESN and IH leadership on service delivery and program design for region-wide emergency services.
