NL Health Services Values Diversity and Inclusivity

Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) Health Services expresses its concern regarding reports of racism, discrimination and abuse coming out of the Lewisporte area.

We believe that everyone, physicians, employees, volunteers, students, patients and families, deserve to be supported, welcomed and treated with respect and dignity. As a provincial health authority, we firmly reject all forms of racism and are resolute in our pursuit of equitable and inclusive environments for all.

Diversity enriches our workforce, fosters innovation, and enables us to better meet the unique health needs of our communities.

Above all, NL Health Services is committed to supporting our physicians and employees and working towards a safe, inclusive and anti-racist health-care environment for all.
