Catholic Health Alliance of Canada Program FOR VIRTUAL Conference

Rise Up and Reach Out The Pandemic Calls Forth the Compassionate Healing Ministry of Jesus

Annual National Conference Thursday May 6, 2021 & Friday May 7, 2021 10:30 – 16:45 EST

~ 1 ~ Welcome Participants

Welcome to the 58th annual national Catholic health care conference being held, like so many other initiatives during this pandemic, virtually. Our theme this year is Rise Up and Reach Out: The Pandemic Calls Forth the Compassionate Healing Ministry of Jesus.

The Catholic Health Alliance of Canada brings together 14 sponsors who give direction and guidance to the 129 Catholic health care operating entities across the country. We are guided by our strategic plan Witness, Proclaim, Serve and a common work plan to take action and bring value to all of our organizations. Together, we are called on to lead, collaborate, innovate, and influence in order to improve health care in Canada and to serve where the needs are greatest ­— especially for people who are poor, vulnerable and marginalized.

While there is no doubt this pandemic is “unprecedented”, Catholic health care has a history, as well as the Healing Ministry of Jesus, to draw from as we navigate our way through these times. I am reminded of the story of the Grey Nuns arrival in my home of Saskatoon over a hundred years ago. Navigating up the river they came across what is now Saskatoon and found a raging typhoid epidemic. Instead of carrying on with their journey, they stopped to care for those in need, eventually founding St. Paul’s Hospital in Saskatoon. Catholic health care is called once again to do the same — care for those who have been greatly affected by the pandemic, especially vulnerable populations. As is often said, we may all be in this storm together, but how we navigate it varies greatly — some have no life raft or life-jacket at all. We do well to recall that this journey has also been difficult for those that serve in Catholic health care: health care staff, volunteers, ethicists, spiritual care workers, administrators and members of our Boards. Let us remember the often incredible pressure that these folks have endured and continue to experience throughout this pandemic, all the while doing a remarkable job in caring for those who come to us in need. The fear, anxiety, moral distress and pressure they encounter is, indeed, “unprecedented”.

Over the course of this conference, we will have the opportunity to share some of the stories that have emerged from these challenging times and explore some of the ways in which our organizations have responded to this pandemic. We will gain valuable insight into our successes and share our learnings, and we will explore what still needs to be done in the days and years to come. These are examples of the healing presence of Christ manifest through Catholic health care today!
