Our Strategic Direction
Strategic Direction 2009-2012 - Defining Our Focus, Measuring Our Progress provides the foundation for all activity within Alberta Health Services. This Strategic Direction is organization-wide and is a critical foundation for our planning, operations and accountability.
This plan includes 3 goals, 8 areas of focus, 20 strategic priorities and 4 values. It defines the focus we will have over the next three years, and outlines how we will measure our success.
A consultation process involving staff, physicians and Alberta Health Services partner agencies was conducted in May 2009 to help define and provide input to this document. The valuable and insightful suggestions provided helped inform the final draft, which was approved by the board June 30, 2009.
