June is National Indigenous History Month.
OHSNI recognizes and celebrates the rich histories, cultures, knowledge systems, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples.
Indigenous Peoples have long demonstrated deep understandings of health, wellness, healing, and community care – knowledge that continues to shape healthcare practices and improve outcomes today. We also recognize the growing contributions of Indigenous physicians, nurses, researchers, Elders, Knowledge Keepers, and healthcare leaders who are advancing culturally safe care across Canada.
With National Indigenous Peoples Day upcoming, we want to take this opportunity to acknowledge our commitment to health equity, reconciliation, and meaningful partnerships with Indigenous communities.
