EXPERIENCE SURVEY RESULTS

At the North Shore Health Network (NSHN), our mission is to provide effective, compassionate healthcare. Across our 3 sites in Blind River, Thessalon and Richard’s Landing, we function as one team providing equitable, high quality, integrated, rural health and wellness services for everyone.

We are made up of a multi-faceted team including registered staff, physicians, nurse practitioners, social work, physiotherapy, dietitian, personal support workers, housekeeping staff, food services workers, volunteers, essential caregivers and students.

We pride ourselves on maintaining a high level of quality care which is driven by our core values of Compassion, Accountability, Respect, Equity, and Sustainability (NSHN C.A.R.E.S.). As an organization we strive to maintain a safe and comfortable home-like environment for our patients, residents, and clients which provides a sense of privacy, dignity and security.
