Acute and Community Care

The Aboriginal Patient Navigators (APNs) connect with Aboriginal patients and family members, health care professionals, and other service providers to make sure Aboriginal patients receive culturally safe, appropriate, and timely care, whether in hospital or community.

Aboriginal Health Liaisons represent part of the APNs team, and provide support, advocacy, and health education to Aboriginal clients and their families in hospital and community settings. Aboriginal Mental Health Liaisons, who provide assessment, referral, counseling support services, and liaise with other mental health workers in hospital and community, are also part of the APNs team.

From connecting patients to community services, assisting and educating health professionals in caring for Aboriginal clients, to helping patients understand and navigate the health care system; APNs provide invaluable support and services to Fraser Health’s Aboriginal patient population.
