The renewed partnership agreement serves as an avenue to promote excellence in the health leadership field and provide the staff from Pallium Canada with a cost-effective pathway to the Certified Health Executive (CHE) Program.
Pallium Canada has renewed its strategic alliance with the Canadian College of Health Leaders (CCHL) to increase the leadership capabilities of health care managers in Canada.
The CHE designation is the only national certification program for Canadian health leaders. This program offers individual leaders several benefits including support for lifelong learning in health services leadership; assistance with career advancement; peer recognition and serves as an essential career designation.
Stephan (Steve) Plourde, CHE, Chief Operating Officer at CCHL, said: “Renewing this partnership with Pallium Canada allows us to build on the momentum we’ve created together and further support leaders who are shaping the future of healthcare.”
“We are excited to continue our partnership with CCHL as we work together to strengthen the leadership and systems that support high-quality palliative care across Canada,” said Jeffrey Moat, CEO of Pallium Canada. “Health care leaders play a central role in shaping the delivery of care. By equipping them with the knowledge and skills to embed palliative care into their organizations, we ensure patients and families in communities nationwide benefit from more timely, compassionate, and effective care.”
This collaboration will also allow for both organizations to better address the constantly evolving needs of health leaders and align themselves with the LEADS in a Caring Environment framework. This framework is a foundation for Canadian health leadership development and defines the knowledge, skills and attitudes a leader must have to positively contribute to the Canadian health care system.
