November 22 2023 - 4:40PM
Premier Health of America Inc. (TSXV: PHA) (the
“
Corporation” or “
Premier
Health”), a leader in healthcare services and
technologies, is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Cambridge based Canadian Health Care Agency
(“
CHCA”), has been retained as a primary
contractor for 4-year contracts with Indigenous Services Canada
(“
ISC”).
CHCA has been retained as a primary contractor
in Ontario, and as back-up stream in Manitoba and Alberta, to
provide nursing services and care primarily in remote, isolated,
and semi-isolated communities. The contracts have an initial term
of 4 years, for an initial estimated value of $23.4M and includes 4
1-year extension options, that if exercised, could increase the
total value of the contracts over the full 8-year period. The
contracts were awarded on November 3 and are to transition in early
2024. Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) works collaboratively with
partners to improve access to high quality services for First
Nations, Inuit, and Métis. ISC’s vision is to support and empower
Indigenous people to independently deliver and address the
socio-economic conditions in their communities.
CHCA is a provider of specialized nursing
services that focuses on the recruitment, training, and placement
of Registered Nurses and Nurse Practitioners for expanded roles and
essential services to Indigenous communities across Canada’s
north. CHCA is based in Cambridge, Ontario, and was founded in
2001 in response to severe staffing shortages in Canada’s northern
regions.
“We are pleased to have been selected to
continue working with ISC. Our exceptional health care and
administrative professionals are excited about the contract award,
and appreciate the trust placed in CHCA to continue providing
health care services to remote, isolated, and semi-isolated First
Nations communities in ON, MB, and AB.” said Giovanni Garay,
general manager of CHCA.
