Update on Transition to Newfoundland and Labrador Health Services
Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) Health Services is providing an update on the progress of its transition to a single provincial health authority. Members of the public can now access information about the organization through its newly branded social media platforms as well as a new website, NLHealthServices.ca, which will be developed over time.
“Over the last two months, significant work has taken place to transition to one provincial health authority,” said David Diamond, CEO, NL Health Services. “We are pleased to have a new brand and identity, as well as new digital platforms, and we encourage patients, clients and residents to visit the website and social media channels for corporate content and news.”
NL Health Services’ new website contains introductory content, and links to former regional health authority websites for service and contact information. This website will continue to grow as the organization unifies into one provincial organization.
Patients, families and staff can expect to see the former logos and terms of ‘Eastern/ Central/ Western/ Labrador-Grenfell Health’ and the ‘Newfoundland and Labrador Centre for Health Information’ (NLCHI) on materials and platforms as these are gradually updated to reflect NL Health Services’ new brand and identity.
Members of the public can follow us on the newly created NL Health Services’ social media accounts, found at:
- Facebook (@NLHealthServices),
- Twitter (@NL_HealthServ),
- LinkedIn (@nl-health-services) and
- YouTube (@NLHealthServices).
Former organizations’ social media accounts will be phased out in the near future.
Inspired by our commitment to the health and wellbeing of our patients, residents, clients, and the people of the province, our new logo draws from the provincial flag and features a health-care cross that also creates a stylized map of Newfoundland and Labrador. This identity represents our pride in place, the dedicated people who work in our health-care system and the coming together of the four regional health authorities and NLCHI. For more information on the organization’s visual identity, please visit: https://nlhealthservices.ca/our-organization/our-logo/.
“Today’s launch is another step forward in the transition to one provincial health authority as envisioned by Health Accord NL. Thank you to all residents of Newfoundland and Labrador for embracing this change and putting their trust in us to transform our province’s health services,” concluded Mr. Diamond.
Newfoundland and Labrador Health Services thanks the public for your continued support.
