Community Engagement
Your voice, your care, wherever you call home
Community engagement is an essential function and core value of Ontario Health atHome, and a crucial component to delivering high-quality care. By working together with patients, family members, caregivers and the community, we are able to meet these goals.
Involving those with lived experience brings unique insight, helps guide us in the development of patient-centred programs, services and policies, and further ensures our services are relevant, beneficial, reflective and supportive of patient needs, priorities and values:
Join our volunteer Community Engagement Program!
- Our volunteers are patients, family members and caregivers with recent home and community care experience.
- Our program is flexible – You choose what, when and how you participate based on your interests and availability.
- Your experience matters. We support and prepare volunteers so that they can contribute meaningfully.
We are committed to creating a safe and inclusive environment free from discrimination, harassment and tokenism to ensure volunteer Advisors feel empowered to provide their honest and meaningful feedback. To ensure we are inclusive in our approach, we will intentionally engage with historically excluded communities including Indigenous, Francophone, racialized, Two-Spirit and LGBTQIA+, disabled and other underserved communities.
We’d love to hear from you!
