Communities, organizations, and clinical teams are working collaboratively to create new or adapt existing health services during the COVID-19 outbreak. Accreditation Canada (AC) and Health Standards Organization (HSO) have developed this guide to support First Nations and Indigenous Health Service organizations in urban, rural and remote areas across Canada in responding to COVID-19. It reflects actionable criteria found in HSO standards and acknowledges the importance of cultural support. This information does not replace any jurisdictional legislation or regulatory requirements.
