Southwest Ontario Aboriginal Health Access Centre (SOAHAC) is a diverse, dynamic, multiservice Indigenous health and wellness agency. We strive to provide quality, wholistic health services by sharing and promoting traditional and western health practices to enable people to live in a more balanced state of well-being. SOAHAC provides services to Indigenous people including those who live on and off reserve, status, non-status, Inuit, and Metis within the Southwest, Waterloo-Wellington and Erie St Clair regions. SOAHAC has a mandate of ensuring that health services are accessible, of high quality, and are culturally appropriate. It is SOAHAC’s objective to build health care capacity within Indigenous communities. Currently, we are seeking the services of an Indigenous Patient Navigator to join our interdisciplinary staff team to work at our Owen Sound site.

Grounded in Indigenous values, relational practice, and wholistic wellness, this role supports Indigenous clients in understanding care options, asking informed questions, accessing culturally safe care, and navigating complex health systems.

Working within predominantly Western health environments, the Navigator respectfully advocates for Indigenous patients while building collaborative relationships with hospitals, physicians, care teams, Traditional Healers, Elders, and community organizations. The role helps bridge Indigenous and Western approaches to wellness through a Two-Eyed Seeing approach that honours Traditional Healing alongside clinical care.

The Navigator assists with care coordination, discharge planning, advocacy, culturally safe transitions, confidentiality, documentation, and access to community and Traditional Healing supports to promote wellness, dignity, and equitable care outcomes for Indigenous people and families.

Registered Nurse (RN), Registered Practical Nurse (RPN), Social Worker, Social Service Worker, Indigenous Human Services, Health Promotion, or related human services degree/diploma preferred. Equivalent education and experience may be considered.
Minimum 3–5 years’ experience working with Indigenous people in healthcare, hospital, community wellness, patient advocacy, system navigation, case management, social work, or related environments.
Demonstrated experience navigating hospital systems and understanding clinical pathways, specialist care, and discharge planning.

Knowledge of Indigenous health inequities impacts of colonialism, and systemic barriers in healthcare.
Understanding of Traditional Healing practices and willingness to support Indigenous wellness pathways.
Knowledge of Indigenous organizations, Nations, and community supports in the service region.
Ability to respectfully advocate in predominantly Western institutional environments.
Strong critical thinking and ability to ask informed healthcare questions.
Ability to translate medical language into understandable information.
