It establishes a common voice and perspective on health and wellness. It describes the Nations’ overall direction regarding their vision and guiding principles; who the Nations are; and their Regional and Nation health and wellness priorities. This plan describes how the Nations and their partners will work together based on the 7 Directives , the guiding principles outlined in the Indigenous Nations of the Interior Declaration of Unity (2010), the Interior Partnership Accord (2012) and the Nation Letters of Understanding with Interior Health Authority. The Interior Nations’ priorities focus on improving health programs and services, bringing financial resources and decision-making closer to home and strengthening, maintaining and aligning capacity with communities and Nations through a system that is deeply rooted in the values, principles and cultures of the 7 Nations of the Interior. Governance structures and processes continue to evolve to support implementation of this vision and the iRHWP describes the various entities that the 7 Nations will establish, in partnership with Interior Health Authority and the First Nations Health Authority, to support technical work and decision-making. The iRHWP also sets the intention to further refine communication and engagement processes to ensure that everyone receives the information they need and have opportunities for engagement and to provide input and direction to the work moving forward. Each of the 7 Nations have identified emerging health priorities and remain committed to developing Nation Health and Wellness Plans over the next year. Regional priorities, summarized below, have been identified based on the 7 Directives and the priorities shared among multiple Nations. In future planning cycles, Nation plans, which have been informed by community priorities, will be the basis of the Regional Health and Wellness Plan. This interim plan is a living document that will be revisited and revised to reflect the structures and processes being developed and the further planning work that will be done throughout the year by the 7 Nations. This work will lay the foundation for the 7 Nations to continue to operationalize the 7 Directives and Unity Principles, and to transform the health system serving their people to one that is based in their values, principles and cultures and best supports the health and wellness of the people of the 7 Interior Nations.

Each community will collect specific information on injuries by distributing a form to help collect the necessary information, the form which asks the 5 W’s: Who (age and gender), What (what happened), Where (injury occurred), When (date & time of day), and Why. The information collected will then be entered into an electronic database to generate reports and find out what injuries are taking place throughout a period of time. Communities can then use this information to start prevention programs in their communities. In order for us to get the most accurate information possible, we would like to encourage that ALL injuries be reported, regard- less of severity. Boozhoo-Greetings.
