Health PEI was created in July 2010, marking a major step toward realizing a One Island Health System that provides Islanders with the right care, by the right provider, in the right place. Headquartered in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Health PEI is the single health authority responsible for the delivery of publicly-funded health services in Prince Edward Island, Canada. It operates hospitals, health centres, extended term care homes, addiction facilities and primary care sites among other facilities throughout the province while providing a wide variety of programs and services. The Health PEI Board of Directors governs the agency, is accountable to the Minister of Health and Wellness and works collectively on behalf of all Islanders to ensure the management and delivery of safe, quality health care.
As Health PEI continues to grow and establish a One Island Health System, they have set out several goals:
People: Establish a healthy, safe and high-performing workplace that supports and develops people.
Quality and Safety: Integrate quality and patient safety into the culture of the organization.
Access and Coordination: Provide quality, equitable and patient-focused care across the province.
Innovation and Efficiency: Develop new and innovative approaches to improve efficiency and utilization of health care resources.
The Provincial Department Head of Oncology will lead the coordination and continued advancement of oncology services across the province. With a focus on strengthening and stabilizing care delivery across Queen Elizabeth and Prince County Hospitals, this leader will ensure sustainable staffing and program growth to meet the rising need for cancer care and pursue innovative ways to expand the range and scope of services available on the Island. Working collaboratively with other Provincial Department Heads, site leadership, and the Chief Medical Officer, they will foster integration and consistency across sites supporting both clinical excellence and patient continuity.

Program Description
HOMELESS HEALTH PROGRAM (HHP)
The Homeless Health Program is a Nurse Practitioner-led initiative that provides essential healthcare services to individuals who are homeless, precariously housed, or transitioning out of homelessness in the Peel Region. We understand the unique challenges faced by those without stable housing, and our goal is to make healthcare accessible, integrated, and responsive.
Our dedicated team includes Nurse Practitioners, Registered Nurses, Registered Practical Nurses, and Personal Support Workers, all working together to ensure our patients receive the care they need, where and when they need it. We remove barriers to care for those facing housing instability and poor health.
The program manages 45 medical beds at the Dundas Street Shelter, providing 24/7 care, as well as daytime mobile primary care services at other shelters and drop-ins across the region.
By providing these services, we help hospitals make the best use of their emergency and acute care resources. Patients who no longer need to stay in the hospital but still require medical support can continue their recovery in a shelter bed with healthcare services. We also offer additional support for people in shelters who may need extra medical attention, helping to prevent unnecessary hospital visits.
This program ensures that structurally vulnerable populations in our community have access to the care they deserve, improving overall health and wellbeing.
