dc.description.abstractRecognizing the need to understand the complex, often incomprehensible, issues that confront First Nations people, this thesis considers the question of whether or not Health Transfer benefits First Nations. The evidence from documentation, focus groups and the author's experience as the Health Director of the Heiltsuk First Nation were studied using an action research approach. The opportunities and challenges of Health Transfer became apparent. Acknowledging the complexities of the issue, this thesis concludes that Health Transfer is indeed a benefit to First Nations. In order to make Health Transfer benefits available to other First Nations communities, recommendations are made regarding leadership, education, practice, Health Transfer and self-government.
