Participation Opportunities

 
The Office of Public Engagement has developed a series of helpful resources, including planning tools, templates, and tip sheets to support staff in planning, implementing and evaluating their public engagement initiatives.

NL Health Services has a dedicated program called MyVoiceNL that collects feedback and measures the experience of care across the health system. Through surveys, the people who use our services tell us our strengths and areas for improvement. This feedback helps us understand the experiences, priorities, and needs of our patients and caregivers. We use the results to support planning and quality improvement projects.

Our Accessibility Plan supports inclusion, diversity, equity and accessibility in our communities and workplaces. Our goal is to ensure we learn from diverse perspectives and lived experiences. Please engage with us as we implement this important strategy.
If you are an individual with lived experience, consider joining the NL Health Services Accessibility Community. Members will be contacted by email and asked their opinions on actions being considered as we implement the plan. Participation is voluntary and your feedback will be confidential.
NL Health Services has some decisions to make about expanding Meals on Wheels. We are seeking feedback on where to offer the service, what costs individuals can afford, and when to deliver meals to clients. Your feedback is important to us. This page links you to a brief survey and information about the Meals on Wheels program.

In the month of June, NL Health Services conducted a survey about potential expansion of Meals on Wheels in a variety of communities in the Eastern Urban and Eastern Rural Zones. Almost 400 responses were received! Thank-you for your input, and a "What We Heard" report summarizing the findings will be released soon. But first, the project team is seeking clarity on three key points. 

Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) Health Services is conducting a survey to help understand the health needs of residents and communities across the province. The Newfoundland and Labrador Statistics Agency (NLSA) is conducting the survey by mail and by phone using a randomized sample of provincial households. 

NL Health Services is developing a strategy to address climate change. The public was invited to participate through polls, a discussion forum, and other engagement opportunities. This engagement closed on February 17, 2025. Read the "What We Heard" report.
