CANADIAN FORCES HEALTH SERVICES: CANADA'S
MILITARY HEALTH SYSTEM
The Canadian Forces Health
Services (CFHS) is the designated health care provider for Canada's
military personnel, delivering medical and dental services at military
installations across Canada and overseas. Providing this service holds
many challenges unique to the military environment-and others, like
time, people, and money are shared by the civilian health care sector.
To address these challenges, the CFHS is currently implementing an ambitious
and innovative health care reform process. Its goal is to develop a
patient-oriented health service that better meets the needs of CF members
at home and abroad.
This site was developed with
a goal of providing information to members of the Canadian Forces, the
Department of National Defence and the health care team at large but
is open to anyone to browse freely.
