About us

The First Nations Health Authority is a diverse and transformational health organization of professional, innovative, and dedicated team members and leaders.


The first of its kind in Canada, FNHA works as a health-and-wellness partner with BC First Nations to support self-determination and decision-making to improve health outcomes.


Title:
Manager, Cultural Safety & Humility in Primary Care


Contract:
Three year term.


Hours:37.5 hours per week. (Core hours 9am-3pm Mon-Fri).

About the role
The Manager leads and supports team members in the successful development of the ICSH Engagement and Learning Pathway project.

The ICSH Engagement and Learning Pathway is envisioned as a product or series of products that leverage existing ICSH materials and partnerships, with a user-friendly virtual interface to translate materials into interactive practice support tools, embeddable workflow resources, and at-the-elbow supports for community-based physicians and teams to improve relational, culturally safe practice(s) with First Nations, Metis and Inuit peoples.

The project would be an iterative support for community-based physicians and team-based primary care providers at all stages of their cultural safety and humility journeys with non-duplicative, tailored ICSH resources to facilitate further integration of ICSH practices in primary and community care.

The central team will develop tools, tailor resources, and offer training/workshops that will be available to the Joint Standing Committees (JSCs), the Joint Collaborative Committees (JCCs), Primary Care Networks (PCNs), and other primary and community care providers.
