2025 National Catholic Health Care Week

Designated by the Catholic Health Alliance of Canada (CHAC), National Catholic Health Care Week (Feb. 2-8, 2025) is a time to give thanks for Catholic health care and for the thousands of dedicated staff, physicians and volunteers who serve courageously in healthcare ministry.
​
This year’s theme, Caring for our Common Home, celebrates the interconnectedness of all creation and helps us to reflect on how our individual and collective actions and our systems—health, social, economic—carry on Jesus’ healing ministry and promote a healthy world where all can thrive. 

Covenant contributes to the health and well-being of Albertans as four Catholic organizations rooted in an over 155-year legacy of compassionate care and service in the province. These include Covenant Health, Covenant Care, Covenant Living and Covenant Foundation.

During the Week, Covenant will share stories and generate discussion through their social media channels highlighting the inspiring work of Catholic health care, its legacy of healing and the incredible work their teams do every day to provide care to people who are most vulnerable in our society.
​
Covenant invites you to spread the message and value of Catholic health care. Join in the conversation on social media using #catholichealthcareweek on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or LinkedIn.
