We know you’re looking for solutions to challenges you’re experiencing in the health workforce. One of our priorities at Health Workforce Canada is to share initiatives, policies, and practices that are working so we can support you in finding solutions that work for you.
We acknowledge that we live and work on the traditional territories of many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples. We recognize and celebrate the strength and resilience of Indigenous health workers and we embrace the opportunity to work closely together to advance cultural safety for those who provide care and those we care for.
Health Workforce Canada is a new, independent organization established by an Interim Steering Committee, supported by the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI), and funded by Health Canada. It has been created in recognition of the need to bring together health workforce experts and those in the health care field to learn from each other and strengthen health workforce data and planning to help ensure health workers are there to provide the care people in Canada need.
We are committed to engaging with a broad spectrum of stakeholders as we chart the path toward new approaches to health workforce planning.
