The Women’s Population Panel at St. Joseph’s Health Centre held its first meeting in January 2008. Since then, the WPP has been involved in discussions, provided advice and acted as a forum for the exchange of information in an effort to enhance the quality of women’s care at St. Joseph’s Health Centre.
Each panel being aligned with a program, the WPP falls under the auspices of the Women’s, Children’s & Family Health Program in addition to receiving coordinating and facilitation support from the Patient, Family and Community Engagement (PF&CE).
The WPP holds monthly meetings, on the 4th Thursday of the month, from 6 pm to 7:30 pm, usually taking a break during the summer and in December.
Similar to the other Panels, the WPP has 20 regular members, consisting of 7 community agency representatives, 7 community members at large, and 6 SJHC staff.
In addition, in an effort to provide a direct linkage between panel and program, the Administrative Director of the Women’s, Children’s & Family Health Program sits on the WPP as an ex-officio member. Similarly, the Director of Patient, Family and Community Engagement (PF&CE) also regularly participates in an ex-officio capacity.
Questions about the Women’s Population Panel, including inquiries about membership can be directed to Jutta Schaaf, Coordinator, PF&CE at schaaj@stjoe.on.ca or 416-530-6486 ext 3596.
