Hearts Based #Education and #AntiColonial #Learning in #Healthcare (H.E.A.L) Project is using the #arts to combat #HealthcareBiases.
“The H.E.A.L. #HealthcareProject provides #SystemicChange that is long overdue. I often think about the extractive ways that we talk about #CulturalSensitivity and #CulturalCompetency,” said Nicole Halbauer, H.E.A.L. Healthcare Project Manager.
The project will use #poetry, #storytelling, and #VisualArts to better understand patient experiences with a goal of #humanizing the healthcare system by bringing together #FirstNations #creators and #activists based in #PrinceGeorge.
They will work to create #ArtsBased and #AntiOppressive learning materials for healthcare staff including #nurses and #doctors.
The #FreeLessons will be available on the H.E.A.L Healthcare website.
The program is being organized by the Health Arts Research Centre in partnership with the Collaborating Centre for Indigenous Health.
The project is part of the federal government’s plan to create better and safer health systems for Indigenous people with $126.7 million being committed to the project over three years.

The new osteoporosis doctor I was referred to is trying to get clinic staff to force me to use #Telus #CorporateRun #health phone system for first intake appointment on Thursday morning. I'm calling them tomorrow & telling them I'm not downloading an app when the doctor can use a phone to call me.
I'm going to tell whomever is unlucky enough to picks up the phone at their office in the morning - that I'm recording the entire phone call for my personal security records & for evidence that I refused to be forced into enabling public health care be destroyed. I'm not a YES GIRL for that sleazy evil.
I won't be bullied into enabling the #BCNDP #BonnieHenry push towards privatized health care by shitbuckets of any stripes. I'm fighting it, however personally possible.
