Welcome to the North West LHIN

The North West Local Health Integration Network (LHIN), with its partners, is working towards its vision for the northwest: Healthier people, a strong health system – our future. The North West LHIN is responsible for planning, integrating and funding many local health services, including hospitals, the Community Care Access Centre, community health centres, long-term care homes, community support service agencies and community mental health and addiction services.

Planning, delivering and accessing health services within the northwest can be challenging. We have the lowest population, spread over the largest geographic area. The North West LHIN extends from just west of White River to the Manitoba border and from Hudson Bay in the north down to the United States border. Portions of our Aboriginal population live in remote areas with road access only in the winter; others are accessible only by air.

The North West LHIN believes that local communities best understand their local health care needs and priorities. We are committed to ongoing community engagement and continue to seek knowledge and input in developing local solutions.

By working together, we will succeed at improving the quality of and accessibility to health care services for the residents of Northwestern Ontario.
