Advocacy

Our Regional Indigenous Patient Advocate works on behalf of patients both in hospital and in the community to support their needs and rights. The advocate also partners with Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs Patient Advocacy Unit to make sure individuals who live outside of Winnipeg have support.

If you or someone you know is receiving medical care in Winnipeg, access these services by calling toll-free 1-877-940-8880. You can also ask your health-care provider to call WRHA Indigenous Health for you.

Why call WRHA Indigenous Health for patient services? Call if you or your family member:

• speak an Indigenous language
• is being discharged
• want a patient advocate
• want ceremonies or traditional medicines
• need additional support
• are not sure if you need us – we can do an assessment to assist you
