Date: 2025-03-12
St. Joseph's Care Group (SJCG) is thrilled to be featured in a new episode of the Indigenous Medicine Stories: Anishinaabe mshkiki nwii-dbaaddaan podcast, where the discussion focuses on N'doo'owe Binesi, SJCG's Indigenous Health Division, and the significance of traditional healing in modern healthcare.
Hosted by Dr. Darrel Manitowabi, Associate Professor at Northern Ontario School of Medicine University, the two part podcast episode features voices from Ogichidaa Onaakonigewin (Elders Council), the Nanaandawe'ewin Traditional Healing Program, and the Vice President of N'doo'owe Binesi.
This episode offers a unique and powerful opportunity to learn about the deeply rooted traditions of Indigenous healing and its growing integration within the healthcare system, while also emphasizing the pivotal role of Elders and knowledge keepers in shaping the future of culturally safe and trauma-informed healthcare.
As the 10-year anniversary of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Calls to Action approaches, these conversations serve as a reminder of the ongoing journey toward reconciliation and the importance of honouring Indigenous knowledge in modern practices.
Stay tuned for the episode's release later today, and help spread the word to amplify these critical conversations on Indigenous healing and leadership.
