Listening to You

AHS leadership, along with Alberta Health, embarked on a Health Engagement Tour across Alberta in 2022. In each community, events invited internal and community stakeholders to discuss three questions:

What is the healthcare system doing well?
What are the current challenges within the healthcare system?
What opportunities exist to address challenges?

View the reports from the communities below. Community Conversations are being scheduled for 2023. Stay tuned for more details.

Advisory Councils

AHS is committed to meaningful and authentic community engagement with Albertans. One of the best channels to connect with us is through our Advisory Councils. Councils help patients and families contribute to healthcare solutions and the betterment of our system.

Twelve Health Advisory Councils provide a grassroots perspective and an understanding of their communities' health needs. Find your Health Advisory Council on this map.

AHS' Wisdom Council provides guidance and recommendations to ensure AHS develops and implements culturally appropriate and innovative health service delivery for Indigenous Peoples.

AHS' four Provincial Advisory Councils advise on province-wide health programs. Councils include public members who represent all Zones, healthcare professionals and stakeholders in their areas of focus.

Together4Health

Together4Health, AHS' online engagement platform, invites Albertans to have their say on various healthcare topics. Join our online community to keep up to date on current and future projects.
