The First Nations Health Authority (FNHA) Health Benefits Medical Transportation team is
extending hours of operations for patient travel to include Saturday and Sunday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The extended hours are for isolation requests only. All requests should be sent to
COVID19needs@fnha.ca.
The new hours enhance the FNHA COVID-19 response by providing operational capacity to coordinate rooms and meals for individuals eligible for isolation/quarantine support. The team will assess requests using criteria developed with Health Protection and Emergency Management.
Not all self-isolation requests will be approved through the FNHA process. Some may be considered out of scope and directed back to communities or Indigenous Services Canada for support.
