Why this petition matters

Started by Brianne Roberge

Our province has had a direct and overwhelming focus on Western Medicine, completely ignoring other options like holistic medicine that focuses on helping the individual ACTUALLY get healthy and heal their bodies. It's time healthcare in our province changed!

We are looking to get 100,000 signatures to help our company, The Holistic RN & Company, a holistic nursing service, be accepted under public health billing!

Currently only doctors are able to bill through public health- and it's time that changed. There needs to be more options for natural medicine available to the public across Alberta- in a financially accessible manner so that those with low income or no income can also get the help that they need, and not just those who can afford our services.

The Holistic RN & Company is Alberta's innovative nurse-led health and wellness clinic, where we bridge the gap between western medicine and holistic healing to help our clients become their healthiest and happiest selves by actually getting to the root cause of their problems, rather than just using a band-aid approach to health.

Here's the problem: Right now Alberta's health care industry is in dire straights- there is currently an average wait of 6-12 weeks for a doctor's appointment- and a wait of 27.4 weeks for a specialist appointment.

Our emergency departments are overrun with wait times of 3 or more hours for medical emergencies, and people are getting sicker than ever. When you finally do get in to see someone, it's a five minute appointment where your concerns are not addressed, and you are handed a prescription and walked right back out the door.

What's more, is Alberta's current approach to health care is hyper-focused on treating the symptoms- and not the cause. Think of it like this: when you have a light go off on your vehicle dash, you have two options to fix it. Find the problem or unplug the light. Our current healthcare system is too focused on unplugging the light. We believe in finding the problem instead.

At The Holistic RN & Company, we believe there is a different way to approach health- one where the client is heard, understood, and given control over their own health. We help our clients explore what is going on in their lives and help them make changes to their nutrition, lifestyle factors, stress levels and more, so that they can get to the root cause of their symptoms, heal their bodies, and feel their absolute best.

We do this by providing services like intolerance testing, expert health coaching, and customized health programs to help clients understand their bodies and take realistic, effective and targeted steps towards their goals. By layering in changes and helping the client shift their way of thinking, we are automatically increasing their chances of success.

What's more, is by helping individuals get healthier, we are also automatically reducing the strain on our emergency departments and doctors clinics.

The Holistic RN & Company is for any individual who is looking to improve their health and happiness, reduce or eliminate unwanted symptoms, and be supported by a health practitioner who actually listens and works with them directly.

We put you in the driver's seat where you should be, in control of YOUR health. Best part? Our team is now built of 20+ likeminded nurses who are also fed up with the current healthcare system, and want more for you.

We're eager to change things- and we know you are too. We are looking to make a radical and disruptive shift to Alberta's healthcare industry this year, and we are on a mission to get 100,000 signatures and raise $95,000 to fund the opening of four new clinics across the province this year- so that we can be the change you desire.

Our goal is to change the current picture of health in our province for good, and we need your help to get there.
