“As healthy as can be”
The Regional Health Authority – Central Manitoba Inc. is dedicated to providing health care services with integrity, caring and excellence to nearly 103,000 people of our Region.
Central Region extends across approximately 17,025 square kilometres of south-central Manitoba. It includes 37 municipalities, 6 First Nations and 8.5 per cent of Manitoba’s total population, making it the most populous of the province’s rural and northern regions. In Central Region, where much of our population is involved in agriculture or industry, we offer medical services as close to home as possible and provide care with the personal touch and the more relaxed pace typical of the country. Central Region is often the largest employer in a town or rural area, so our programs, as well as our staff, become an integral part of these communities.
Our goal is to provide outstanding health care at a reasonable cost to our diverse communities. An annual operating budget of $180 M funds over 100 health service programs and facilities. Resources are maximized with innovative technologies such as telehealth services, computerized health records and the latest in diagnostic tools at some sites.
We value our programs and services, but our most significant resources are more than 3,300 highly-skilled employees and countless dedicated physicians and volunteers. Directed by our Chief Executive Officer, these people work with the integrity and caring that distinguishes all our programs and facilities.
The Regional Health Authority Central supports prevention programs and builds partnerships with the community to ensure that the people in our Region are AS HEALTHY AS CAN BE.
We recognize that RHA Central employees are the most important resource in carrying out our mandate. Guided by our Core Values, Board ENDs, Strategic Health Plan, and Community Health Assessment, we are committed to the personal wellbeing and professional development of our staff.
