IFIC Canada Virtual Community Session | Indigenous Approaches to Integrated Community-Based Primary Healthcare

This webinar is presented by the International Federation for Integrated Care (IFIC) Canada.

Building on a March session on integrated community-based primary health care, this session focuses on how First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities approach health, wellbeing, through primary and integrated care.

Many Indigenous communities have long organized health and social services in ways that are holistic and rooted in relationship, community, and a broad understanding of wellbeing, and this session is an opportunity to explore what that means for the wider conversation about integrated care.

With Dr. Lindsay Crowfoot from the Alberta Network Environments for Indigenous Health Research (NEIHR), Nina Larsson and Kyla Wright from the Government of the Northwest Territories and Alisha Matte from the Boardwalk Group, as well as LaZell Hammons and Erica Srisaneha from the Southcentral Foundation's Nuka System of Care in Alaska, we will learn about indigenous insights on building pathways toward wellness.

# About the organization 

 HOMELESS HEALTH PROGRAM

The Homeless Health Program is a Nurse Practitioner-led initiative that provides essential healthcare services to individuals who are homeless, precariously housed, or transitioning out of homelessness in the Peel Region. We understand the unique challenges faced by those without stable housing, and our goal is to make healthcare accessible, integrated, and responsive.

Our dedicated team includes Nurse Practitioners, Registered Nurses, Registered Practical Nurses, and Personal Support Workers, all working together to ensure our patients receive the care they need, where and when they need it. We remove barriers to care for those facing housing instability and poor health.

The program manages 45 medical beds at the Dundas Street Shelter, providing 24/7 care, as well as daytime mobile primary care services at other shelters and drop-ins across the region.

By providing these services, we help hospitals make the best use of their emergency and acute care resources. Patients who no longer need to stay in the hospital but still require medical support can continue their recovery in a shelter bed with healthcare services. We also offer additional support for people in shelters who may need extra medical attention, helping to prevent unnecessary hospital visits.

Our medical services include:

  • Care for chronic conditions like diabetes
  • Medication management
  • Support for substance withdrawal and pain management
  • Wound care
  • Mental health services and stabilization
  • Chiropody (foot care)
  • Monitoring and support after hospital stays

This program ensures that structurally vulnerable populations in our community have access to the care they deserve, improving overall health and wellbeing.
