Through Waabishki Bineshiins (White Thunderbird), IERHA Indigenous Health is recognizing allies who are actively advancing cultural safety, health equity, and reconciliation within our health system.

Michael Pitura, manager of health services for home care in the Beausejour area, is one of those allies.

His work has focused on breaking down barriers for Indigenous communities, challenging systemic racism and helping expand home care supports into First Nation communities so more individuals can remain in their homes, surrounded by family, culture, and connection.

“This is such an important example for the rest of the health-care system,” said Jamie Boyer, Indigenous Health manager. “It shows how we can create processes that promote equitable access and improve outcomes for Indigenous people.”

For Michael, the recognition is meaningful, but the work is what matters.

“Being an ally means listening, learning and standing beside Indigenous partners with respect and humility,” he said. “I am grateful to work alongside so many others who are doing this important work.”

Real change looks like this. Please join us in congratulating Michael

Not every role in health care is visible.
But some are felt in the moments that matter most.

When a family is overwhelmed.
When a child is struggling.
When someone doesn’t know where to turn next.

That’s where social workers step in.

They listen. They advocate. They help people navigate systems that can feel impossible. And they do it with compassion, patience, and an unwavering belief that everyone deserves support.

Across Interlake-Eastern, social workers are changing lives every single day, often quietly, but always meaningfully.

March is National Social Work Month, and it’s an opportunity to recognize the people who stand beside patients and families when they need it most.

If a social worker has made a difference in your life, you're not alone. Their impact is felt throughout the region and beyond.
