What is Change Day Ontario?Change Day is a grassroots movement that is being adopted around the world to improve quality compassionate care. In Canada, the British Columbia, Alberta, and Saskatchewan Health Councils have all championed successful Change Days over the last two years. Change Day Ontario has been designed to empower people within the health system to make positive changes by taking actions and making pledges, big or small, to improve compassionate quality care. The campaign is about people engaging with one another through their ideas and stories; sharing them online and through social media; overcoming barriers; and ultimately, helping to improve the experience of health care for patients and providers alike.
When is Change Day Ontario?Change Day Ontario happens annually, in the fall.
It isn’t just a day, but a movement that runs for a few months and culminates in a day of celebration. The province-wide celebration for Change Day Ontario 2018 took place on November 22, 2018.
