The A&O subcommittee plays an important role in ensuring that the work of the MSA is successful by aligning our work with Regional and Site priorities as well as advocating for what MSA members feel is important in our work environment. We ensure the voice of the MSA is heard when site operations impact how MSA members do their work.

Our emphasis this past year has been on the impact of COVID at our site in addition to focusing on the continued involvement of the MSA in the Redevelopment of Burnaby Hospital. We recognize the extraordinary efforts of all MSA members in these two areas and we will continue to support you and expand our work on these two priorities.

Looking forward, we recognize that bringing Indigenous Cultural Safety to our healthcare system requires much change and we hope to listen and work with all our partners to bring changes that matter.

We have opportunities for 2 MSA members at large to be on this Subcommittee to work with our Site leaders, hone their own leadership skills, and provide their unique perspectives. We welcome your suggestions and inquiries into the work we do.  Please contact us at contact@bhmsa.ca
