Since 2009, the electronic health record has been going live in stages across the Island Health region, affecting nearly every aspect of health care. This interactive timeline shows some of the highlights of this transformational change process.
To zoom in on the timeline and see more detail (especially handy in years 2021-2023), go to the left side of the timeline and click on the magnifying glass with the “+” sign.
Before Canada and BC were formed, Indigenous peoples lived in balance and interconnectedness with the land and water in which the necessities of life are provided. Health disparities persist, which are due to the impacts of colonization and Indigenous-specific racism. Healthy lands, healthy people. Island Health acknowledges and recognizes these homelands and the stewardship of Indigenous peoples of this land; it is with humility we continue to work toward building our relationship.
