First Nations and Métis Health Services

About Us

First Nations and Métis Health Services (FNMHS) collaborates with the Indigenous peoples of Saskatchewan to achieve health and well-being — physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. We are dedicated to supporting patients and their families, informing the health care system, and educating staff and physicians on cultural responsiveness. Our supports are provided to patients and their families from admission to discharge by working with a range of health professionals and departments.

Elders and cultural support workers are available for prayer, counselling, trauma and crisis support and guidance. 

At this time, our services are available in Regina, Saskatoon, Prince Albert and Broadview.
