Senior Organizational Development Consultant

Senior Organizational Development Consultant

We may be biased, but eHealth Saskatchewan is the place to be right now! As the result of a province wide consolidation of IT services in the health care sector, we have seen substantial growth in our organization that is only going to increase as we aim to meet our expanded mandate and the immense need for our support. This gives our people a unique and rare opportunity to truly create, build, improve, and leave their mark on a growing organization.

We are a Treasury Board Crown Corporation that focuses on digital technologies to enable, support, and enhance high quality health services across the entire province. There is no greater job satisfaction than knowing the work you do is directly related to saving a life or bringing a new one into the world. Although we may not be front facing with patient care, we have a huge role in maintaining and improving IT systems and supporting health care providers and teams throughout Saskatchewan in delivering the best possible care to patients, citizens, and health system users. Programs range from primary care to acute care, and includes laboratories, pharmaceuticals and diagnostics. Additional programs and services that support patient care and information include Virtual Care, MySaskHealthRecord, the Provincial Electronic Health Record, Health Registries (eligibility for health services/distribution of health cards) and vital event records.

Our vision is “Connected healthcare, accessible to everyone, everywhere” with a mission to “Collaborate to transform healthcare through the use of information and innovative technology”. It is a complex environment, constantly evolving and quick to change as we live our values of excellence, integrity, teamwork, courage, resilience and collaboration.
