About Shared Health-Soins Communs

Hospitals and Health Care
1001-5000

Shared Health was founded in values that celebrate the diversity of our province and pursue equity of access to health services for all Manitobans by bringing together clinical experts from across the province to deliver a patient-centred, accessible and responsive health system.

We work collaboratively with regional health authorities, service delivery organizations and communities to ensure the health care needs of Manitobans are met compassionately, effectively and as close to home as possible. Shared Health’s scope and services continue to evolve as part of Manitoba’s broader health system transformation.

We are committed to ongoing innovation in delivering health care services and recruiting, developing, and retaining dedicated employees. As health care providers, it is essential to understand and acknowledge that people experience and access health care in different ways. Shared Health strives to create inclusive environments that welcome and value the diversity of all Manitobans.

As a health system, we deliver services to diverse patient populations on the original lands of First Nations and Inuit peoples, and on the homeland of the Métis Nation. This acknowledgement is an important part of our continued efforts to identify, develop and implement culturally safe environments, practices and health-care services.

Respect for every individual, accountability, value and continuous improvement and learning are four pillars guiding Manitoba’s Quality and Learning Framework. A deep and ongoing commitment to this framework and its principles are key to creating a health care environment that is free of judgement, equally safe and inclusive.
