I’m proud to share that Louis Brier Home and Hospital received the 2026 HEABC Affiliate Award for Leading Workplace Health and Safety Practices for our Worker Health & Safety Dashboard. The award was announced on October 26 at the Anvil Centre in New Westminster.
Presented by the Health Employers Association of BC, the Healthcare Employee Relations Awards of BC recognize the people and initiatives that strengthen health care workplaces across the province. Our category recognizes work that improves the health, safety, and well-being of health care workers.
HEABC recognized our dashboard for making it easier for frontline staff to report hazards and incidents quickly and anonymously. The award program also highlighted what happened after a report came in. Leaders could see concerns sooner, follow up, and show staff what action was taken. That follow-through helped build trust and gave staff more reason to speak up the next time they spotted a risk.
Thank you to Alicia Nunez for helping put the dashboard into practice, and to the Louis Brier staff who used it to raise concerns and make our workplace safer. Also thank you #HEABC, #heabcawards, #heabcs and the judges for the 2026 Award.
I was flying back from Amsterdam and couldn’t attend the ceremony in person. I was proud to see Louis Brier so well represented by colleagues from our HR, finance, nursing, and staffing teams.
