Coordinates client/family spiritual care requests and/or access to sacred spaces within the healthcare system to support Indigenous beliefs and practices.
Supports connection to community services such as Indigenous translators and arranges the language and cultural translation services where necessary.
Maintains and updates appropriate documentation and records related to the needs of Indigenous patients in the health care system. Develops and maintains a regional inventory of care related programs and services for clients.
Supports the development of regional strategies to improve care for Indigenous patients by engaging Indigenous communities, organizations and other health system partners within the region, and works in partnership with the Metis Nation of BC, BC Association of Aboriginal Centre, and the First Nation Health Authority as appropriate.
Provides a link between Indigenous communities and PHSA healthcare providers and supports Indigenous peoples’ understanding of the provincial healthcare system, the First Nations Health Authority, and federal healthcare systems where applicable.
Provides information to Indigenous clients, families, communities and organizations within the designated region and provides outreach support to Indigenous communities and organizations to better understand health needs and improve access to PHSA services.
Supports PHSA in improving relationships with Indigenous communities and organizations within the region.
Assists in addressing culturally unsafe care with clients and staff.
