Saskatchewan Health Authority has agreed to a new strategic alliance with the Canadian College of Health Leaders (CCHL) to increase the leadership capabilities of health care managers in the province of Saskatchewan and Canada.
Through this agreement, qualifying staff of the Saskatchewan Health Authority will be recognized for advanced leadership standing and the condensed path towards obtaining their Certified Health Executive (CHE) designation through their completion of their Leadership Essentials program. The CHE is the only certification program for all 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.
Brenda Lammi, Vice President, Leadership and Professional Development at the CCHL, said: “We are thrilled with this new strategic alliance partnership to be continuing our collaboration with Saskatchewan Health Authority, who show their commitment to health leadership by committing to have the CHE as a preferred designation for their employees.”
Kyle Matthies, Executive Director, Organizational Development and Employee Wellness at the SHA, said: “As an organization that is committed to helping leaders learn, grow and lead across the SHA, we are thrilled to be able to provide team members with opportunities to pursue CHE designation, and for the influence it will have on the healthcare experience for the patients, families, communities, employees and physicians that we serve.”
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.
