Transforming Care for Indigenous Children Through Jordan’s Principle

Indigenous children and families continue to face systemic barriers in accessing safe, timely, and culturally appropriate health care.

At the Rehabilitation Centre for Children (RCC), meaningful change is underway. Guided by Jordan’s Principle and the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action, RCC is working in partnership with First Nations communities to co-design care that reflects Indigenous values, knowledge, and priorities.

This approach centers Indigenous leadership, including a dedicated Wisdom Keeper, community partnerships, and active involvement from families, ensuring care is not only accessible but culturally safe and responsive.

The impact is significant: more than 6,000 children have accessed therapy services, many for the first time, within their own communities, reducing travel barriers and strengthening trust in care.

By embedding cultural safety and collaboration at every step, RCC is transforming health care experiences for Indigenous children and families.

Improving Access to Syphilis Treatment in Emergency Departments Across Fraser Health (British Columbia)

During a provincial syphilis outbreak, timely and accurate treatment is critical, but for many individuals facing social and structural barriers, care is often delayed or missed altogether.

To address this, Fraser Health launched a cross-program quality improvement initiative to strengthen access to syphilis treatment within emergency departments as the primary point of care for many vulnerable populations.

By implementing standardized treatment pathways, EMR alerts, onsite medication packages, and targeted staff training, the initiative significantly improved treatment accuracy and access.

The results were transformative: medication administration accuracy increased from 27.5% to 92.5%, while empiric treatment more than doubled, ensuring more patients receive timely care when it matters most.

This initiative shows how coordinated, system-level improvements can enhance patient safety, reduce errors, and improve outcomes during a public health outbreak.

Improving Access to Care Through Digital Connection in British Columbia

Access to health care shouldn’t depend on having a phone — yet for many people, it does. The Test, Link, Call (TLC) program, implemented by the British Columbia Centre for Disease Control, is transforming access to care for people experiencing criminalization and other structural barriers. By providing free smartphones, six-month talk & text plans, and optional peer mentor support, TLC is helping individuals stay connected to essential HIV, hepatitis, and syphilis care.

Launched in 2021 to support people leaving correctional facilities, TLC has since expanded province-wide, reaching over 1,000 clients and partnering with more than 25 clinical services.

By addressing digital access as a key determinant of health, TLC is reducing missed appointments, increasing treatment uptake, and building trust with historically underserved populations. Learn more about this Leading Practice: https://healthstandards.org/leading-practice/test-link-call-project/
