The new Indigenous Health Centre in Toronto merges traditional Indigenous healing with Western medicine, addressing the health needs of over 90,000 Indigenous residents. Michael Milward emphasized the importance of identity and cultural practices for health, offering resources like traditional healers, ceremonial spaces, and palliative care services. This center, which was a long-time vision of former executive director Joe Hester, represents a significant step in providing comprehensive health care tailored to the Indigenous community, acknowledging their unique heritage and health needs.
What we do offer here are both Western health care practices as well as traditional health care practices. The main purpose of all of that is... vital to their health and well-being.
This building was his vision. It's something that he worked on for 23 plus years.
