Local cultural resources:
This resource comes from the Northeast Aboriginal Health Improvement Committee Treaty 8 Frist Nations: Protocols for Health Research Report that was completed in May 2015 (linked below). This resource is intended for health care practitioners and outlines health-related principles and protocols when working with Treaty 8 First Nations communities.
This booklet was designed with physicians working in the Northeast region in mind. The booklet contains contact information for each of the First Nations and Aboriginal communities in the Northeast as well as available health services and the frequency of services the community receives and was updated March 2019.
A 40 page report including historical context of Treaty 8 First Nations, Indigenous health perspectives, principles and protocols, and a variety of recommendations.
