Taking meaningful action toward equitable care for Indigenous People
A significant milestone this year was the launch of the Restorative Practices Program is an Indigenous-led initiative that addresses concerns of anti-Indigenous racism in medical practice.
Grounded in restorative justice principles and Indigenous teachings, the program is one of the ways CPSM is fostering accountability, education, and continuous improvement when concerns of anti-Indigenous racism in medical care occurs.
Its goal is to advance safer, more equitable care by focusing on healing, restoring relationships, and preventing future harm for First Nations, Inuit, and Métis People in Manitoba.
- In less than a year of operation, the program received 49 referrals about instances of anti-Indigenous racism from community members, CPSM registrants, other healthcare professionals, or other areas of CPSM.
- 31 of these cases were closed and the outcomes, the majority of which were addressed by providing support to party or parties involved through cultural supports, restorative approach, resource sharing, and/or education.
- The program continues to build awareness and relationships with First Nations, Inuit, and Métis People, communities, and organizations. In six months, the program met with 37 First Nations, indigenous and/or community organizations, government and healthcare organizations.
