HSN and Nogdawindamin formalize partnership through Protocol Agreement

Health Sciences North (HSN) and Nogdawindamin Family and Community Services have formally signed a protocol agreement that strengthens collaboration and supports the delivery of coordinated services for Indigenous children, youth and families across Northeastern Ontario.

 

While HSN and Nogdawindamin have worked together for many years, the protocol formalizes the partnership by clearly outlining roles, responsibilities, communication pathways and referral processes between the two organizations. The agreement also helps ensure that HSN staff have access to up-to-date information about Nogdawindamin's services, enabling timely referrals and support for families who may benefit from prevention, family support and child welfare services.

Minister Nolan Quinn visits HSN

With more than 3,100 learner placements last year and affiliation agreements with more than 50 post-secondary institutions, HSN is helping train the next generation of healthcare workers for Northeastern Ontario.

 

We recently hosted Ontario’s Minister of Colleges, Universities, Research Excellence and Security, the Honourable Nolan Quinn, who met with learners and medical students from Cambrian College, Laurentian University, Collège Boréal, and NOSM University.

 

We know that when students train here, they are more likely to build their careers here. This work is made possible through close partnerships with local academic institutions, support from the provincial government, and the generosity of donors, including those who helped create the Labelle Innovation and Learning Centre in 2022.
