About Us

Regional Mandate

Role & Accountability

The Erie St. Clair End-of-Life Care Network enables the shared expertise, experience and resources of formal health care providers across the region, working towards a high quality, collaborative and consistent continuum of care.

Networks represent all sectors in an objective and impartial manner. Networks focus on integration/system design/service innovations etc. and are not expected to engage in operational roles related to any one sector.

The ESC EOLCN is accountable to its members and to the ESC LHIN. More

The original mandate for the EOLCNs across Ontario, as outlined in the MOHLTC Strategy (Nov.2004) was articulated as follows:

• broad system design
• coordination and integration of services at a system level
• monitoring and assessment of community needs
• promotion of service innovations

This mandate is to be advanced regionally and provincially.

Additional advisory roles and expectations have emerged as part of the EOLC Strategy, Cancer Care Ontario ’s support for and endorsement of the EOLCN function and in response to expectations of other associations (e.g. Ontario Palliative Care Association , Seniors Health Research Transfer Network etc.) .
