The Chatham-Kent Ontario Health Team has launched its five-year strategic plan.
The plan is being described as a roadmap built on collaboration, inclusivity and shared purpose to reflect the team’s commitment to improving health outcomes, advancing equity and strengthening partnerships around the region.
In a media release, CKOHT executive transformation lead Melissa Harrigan said the new plan is a testament to the “power of partnership.
“It represents the voices of our community, our providers, and our partners – all working together to build a healthier, more connected Chatham-Kent,” Harrigan stated.
According to the release, the development of the strategic plan was guided by a broad engagement process. More than 200 partners and 600 community members contributed insight through workshops, surveys, and facilitated sessions — ensuring diverse voices shaped every step. Its goal is to support healthy, thriving communities by a “connected and person-centred system of care.”
The plan’s vision includes strengthening the primary care system; cultivating a high performing accountable health team and embedding health equity and inclusion in all actions.
