Creating Sustainable Initiatives to Retain and Maintain Health and Social Services Professionals on the Lower North Shore
Abstract
The Coasters Association, in partnership with the Centre de Sant et de Services Sociaux de la Basse-C te-Nord (CSSSBCN), received a Training and Human Resources Development Project from McGill University, for seven weeks from February 13th to March 31st, 2006, Phase 1, under the Retention and Distance Professional and Community Support Program, to conduct a needs assessment on the issue of hiring and retaining English Professionals on the Lower North Shore. The objective of this needs assessment was to develop Phase II which is a two-year proposal that would lead to the improvement of hiring and retaining Health and Social Services Professionals on the Lower North Shore. The long term intended outcome is the increase in access to Health and Social Services for English speaking residents on the territory. Another objective of this needs assessment is to contact institutional and community-based objectives (i.e Education & Health and Social Services) it is hoped that these contacts will lead to partnerships that will help to address the hiring and retention of English-speaking Professionals on the Lower North Shore.
