Welcome to our first edition of Niagara Health Now

Being in the know is essential, especially in the complex and ever-changing world of healthcare. Yet staying on top of all the things you need to know about isn’t always easy. Harder yet is sorting through all the information we get bombarded with to zero in on the things that really matter and help us better understand the evolving environment in which we work.

We’ve come up with Niagara Health Now as a key communications tool to help employees, physicians, volunteers and community members better understand the priorities and issues of the Niagara Health System.

Niagara Health Now is what we’re calling an ‘integrated publication’. Going forward, instead of getting separate issues of Round Up, CEO Update, HIP Update and other corporate communications publications, you’ll be turning to Niagara Health Now for a fuller picture of what’s underway across our hospital. In doing this, in keeping with our organization’s success factors, we’re also ‘using our resources wisely’. This new publication redirects the monies we used to print all of our former publications into this project, thanks to the generous support of Sun Media.

Niagara Health Now also intends to ‘bring out the best in each other’ – another success factor — by providing the opportunity to showcase the great work and wonderful efforts being made by our people across all of our sites to provide compassionate, quality care to the people of Niagara.

Read on, enjoy and let us know what you want to hear more about !!!
