Interior Health’s vision, mission and values are foundational to our shared purpose and future - and our culture. This is what fundamentally guides our beliefs and behaviours, both as an organization and within our teams. It’s something we all collectively own; it defines who we are and who we want to be, and ultimately what change we want to see in the world.
