On today's episode, hosts Nicole Taylor-Sterritt and Jade Chaboyer-Kondra sit down with Becca Britton, Métis Health Systems Advocate (Interior Region) for MNBC’s Ministry of Health and Eva Habib, the Métis Health Equity Manager from Métis Nation British Columbia, or MNBC.
In a compelling conversation, they discuss the history of the Métis, the importance of culturally safe and distinctive health care, and the working relationship between MNBC and Interior Health. This discussion was had in honour of Louis Riel Day, earlier this month.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone working in health care who wants to learn about Métis culture, history, and how to work toward achieving better health outcomes for Métis people.
