Our team provides a spectrum of health care services through an integrated network of sites, services and organizations. We’re united by a shared commitment to excellent and equitable health care.Position OverviewThe role of the PHN is to apply public health science and nursing theory to promote, protect and preserve the health of populations. Services may be directed to individuals, families, groups or communities across the life span. PHNs apply appropriate strategies to prevent injuries, chronic and communicable diseases (e.g., immunization); address environmental issues; promote reproductive and sexual health; and promote the health of perinatal women, their partners, infants and families. PHNs strive to improve the health of all people and reduce inequities among populations by addressing determinants of health and promote equitable health outcomes. PHNs provide services in communities, across communities and across the region. PHNs work collaboratively within the Population Public Health team and with colleagues in other programs, sectors and organizations. Population Public Health participates in Winnipeg Integrated Services, supporting integration across WRHA and Family Services and Consumer Affairs (FSCA).Under the direction of Manager Health Services, PHNs respectfully work in and with diversity including sexual and gender minorities, and across all ethnicities and all cultural, spiritual, political, age, ability, family and economic circumstances. PHNs support self-determination through activities such as pregnancy counselling and by respecting client decisions such as those affecting infant feeding, male circumcision, sexual and reproductive behaviour, and immunization status. PHNs work respectfully with those who are involved in drug using, sexual and other behaviour that may be harmful to them or to others. PHNs promote empowerment and community engagement. These values are consistent with a population health approach that is rooted in an understanding of the broad determinants of health and the principles of primary health care, community development, and harm reduction. Practice is strength-based, client-centered and incorporates the strategies of motivating, enabling, advocating, co-operating and collaborating when working with individuals, communities, and colleagues both within the health system and with other sectors.PHNs may be required to work in locations other than her/his unit/worksite/office within the Population Public Health Program site.Experience
