Supporting Education - Tuition Bursaries
The knowledge that employees bring is vital to ensuring that the people being served are getting the best care possible. Supporting the education of new professionals is important so we have enough people to deliver care in the future. The Government of Saskatchewan provides bursaries to students in a number of health-related programs. These bursaries range from $2,000 to $10,000, for up to two years. For individuals who are not able to access these bursaries, Saskatoon Health Region operates its own bursary program for people enrolled in difficult-to-recruit health care professions. In exchange for a return-in-service commitment, eligible students may receive a bursary directly from the Health Region.
Facilitating Access to Technology - Computer Purchase
Access to information technology opens many doors for people. It is a vital tool for people who want to stay in touch with changes in their professional field including allowing access to on-line resources. The Computer Purchase plan offered by the Health Region provides employees with a loan to purchase a computer. Repayment is done through payroll deduction.
