Your efforts will make a positive difference in the health of individuals, families, neighborhoods, the District, and province. Staff meetings and a strong committee network provide an avenue for ideas, and allow you to actively participate in changes, which have an effect on nursing. The Health District is affiliated with the University of Saskatchewan which has both undergraduate and graduate nursing programs, including a post-RN baccalaureate program. We have initiated and continue to develop common nursing policies and procedures and standards of nursing practice for all facilities in the District. Saskatoon District Health is organized into 11 Care Groups.
Many areas have multidisciplinary rounds and an interdisciplinary approach to care planning.
Nursing is an important part of the team. We believe in care that is safe, effective, and holistic. We encourage input and decision making from the patient's perspective. We strive to promote wellness meaningful to each individual. Long Term Care enhances client and staff support with clinical nurse specialists who provide innovative programs with opportunities for staff to be involved in research.
