Vision: A high‐performing health care system for all in which collective learnings drive continuous improvement.

BC AHSN was initiated by the BC Ministry of Health as a key enabler of a scientific and learning approach to continuous improvement and strategic transformation of BC’s health system. Its creation reflected a need to address a gap in the Province’s health research environment, particularly the need to better connect provincial health research to clinical practice.

As an independent provincial organization focused on creating collaborative partnerships and aligning priorities and resources, BC AHSN is creating an environment in which research and innovation are more readily translated, applied into clinical practice and policy, and evaluated for patient benefit and value.
