Regional Children's Centre Child, Youth, Family, and Caregiver Engagement
Regional Children’s Centre (RCC) Hôtel-Dieu Grace Healthcare (HDGH), is committed to working in partnership with children, youth, families, and caregivers to improve our services.
Regional Children's Centre Family and Caregiver Engagement
Parents and caregivers have a unique perspective, expertise and knowledge on ‘how things work’ that only families have.
Our goal is to:
- Co-create a family engagement model with clients, family members and/or their caregivers.
- To improve mental wellness for children and youth by engaging families as partners in planning, treatment and service delivery.
- Embed family engagement practices throughout the organizational culture through actively listening and learning from clients, family members and/or their caregivers.
- Ensure family engagement continues to be an ongoing priority.
