Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) is one of the largest health providers in Canada. VCH is one of five Provincial Health Authorities and delivers health services in Vancouver, Richmond, the North Shore and many communities in the coastal region, including Squamish, Whistler and Pemberton in Sea to Sky, Gibsons and Sechelt on the Sunshine Coast, and Powell River. Through an affiliation agreement with the United Church, VCH also provides health services in Bella Bella and Bella Coola. VCH takes patients referred for special needs from other health authorities throughout the province. We also work in partnership with Providence Health Care and its hospitals, facilities and services.

In order to better understand VCH and how we deliver health services, review our Vision, Role, and Values, and our Strategic Direction.
