The University Health Network is committed to high quality and equitable care for all patients.
UHN recognizes the significant barriers to accessing care that continue to exist for Indigenous Peoples (First Nations, Inuit and Métis) and is committed to addressing these gaps by advocating for culturally safe, high quality, trauma-informed care that is free of racism and discrimination for all Indigenous patients.
It is also committed to supporting the well-being of Indigenous staff, learners and health care providers so that they can learn and work in an environment that respects and values their Indigenous identities.

- Provide continuity through patients' care journeys when they are admitted, and help facilitate safe, supportive accompaniment and discharge with community supports and resources.

- Based on gaps identified in the services available for Indigenous patients, seek out other possible programs and develop informal and/or formal referral pathways
- Act as a resource for staff and program leaders regarding the needs of Indigenous patients, their families and communities

- Minimum 3 years practical, related experience.
- Previous experience in healthcare environment, an asset.
- Knowledge of Indigenous Nations, community engagement and cultural protocols required.
- Experience building and nurturing relationships with Indigenous communities, Leaders, Elders, Healers, Language Speakers, Oral Historians and Knowledge Keepers.

- Facilitation and/or teaching experience, an asset
- Experience in program development and implementation, an asset
- Proven ability to work collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team and/or independently
