Improving Access to French Language Health Services
Access to quality French-language health services directly impacts the health of Francophones. In Champlain, that means it affects nearly 20 per cent of the population.
The LHIN works to fulfill this need as part of its vision "healthy people and healthy communities supported by a quality, accessible health system", and its responsibilities under the French Language Services Act and the Local Health System Integration Act.
Since 2010, the LHIN has worked in close collaboration with the French Language Health Services Network of Eastern Ontario (Le Réseau), the French Language Health Planning Entity for the Champlain and South East LHINs. The goal is to ensure that health service planning reflects the needs and priorities of the Francophone population.
