Why we’re modernizing

As the needs of Albertans and the health system evolve, how we deliver emergency, urgent, and community-based care must evolve as well. ALTA Paramedic Health is evolving into a modern, province-wide authority with clear accountability for emergency health services, while working alongside partners across the system to support coordinated, patient-centred care. This modernization strengthens how we work with contracted emergency service providers across the province, building on long-standing partnerships to deliver consistent, accountable care that remains close to home.

Evolution, not reinvention

This evolution is not about reinvention or separation from the past. It's about building on what's strong, addressing real pressures facing our workforce and the system, and modernizing how we work so that we can better serve Albertans now and in the future.

Supporting the people who serve Albertans

Caring for the people of Alberta starts with caring for the people who serve them. Supporting the health, safety, development and pride of our workforce is essential to delivering reliable, high-quality care across the province.

Serving Albertans, strengthening the system

Through purposeful modernization, strong public service values, and shared accountability, ALTA Paramedic Health exists to serve Albertans and strengthen the emergency health system we are proud to be part of.
