Peer Health Navigator Certificate

The Peer Health Navigator Certificate provides an opportunity to explore the possibilities in patient/healthcare navigation as non-regulated healthcare professional. In this program, you will learn the skills required to provide support for clients/patients and families, work in collaboration with other members of the healthcare team, and connect to health care and community resources.

You will learn about the history of patient navigation and how these roles have been developed to integrate into healthcare teams in the community, long-term care and hospital care. Understand how these roles can be applied to all types of patient/healthcare situations, including pediatrics, oncology, surgery, mental health and seniors’ care.

The Peer Health Navigator Certificate is designed to be practical and applicable to current clinical settings. The program will be delivered online through live webcasts, and will be geared for adult learners through case examples and interactive discussions.
