About IHSTS
The Institute for Health System Transformation and Sustainability is a small, independent not for profit, founded in 2010, in partnership with the BC Ministry of Health and Fraser Health Authority here in BC.
Our Mission: A robust, vibrant health and care system in BC that engages in transformative thinking and learning.
Our Values: We strengthen BC’s health and care system through effective enquiry processes that ignite insights and generate solutions.
Currently, IHSTS is focused on accelerating emerging and best practices in palliative care and type 2 diabetes. Transformation in these two distinct areas have very significant implications for individuals and the sustainability of the health system as a whole. Change initiatives in these areas will span public policy, population health, community development, clinical delivery and research. Visit ihsts.ca for detailed information.
