About New Brunswick Health Council - Conseil de la santé du Nouveau-Brunswick

The New Brunswick Health Council (NBHC) is a provincial health organization established in 2008. It has a dual mandate to publicly report on the performance of the provincial health system and to engage citizens in enhancing the quality of health services. The NBHC is a vital resource for understanding and monitoring the health and well-being of New Brunswick's population.

The council offers several core services, including the development of comprehensive Population Health Profiles that summarize the health status of residents. It manages extensive datasets to extract metrics for public and research use, and it provides annual recommendations to the ministry of health. Additionally, the NBHC monitors health service delivery, tracking data on various healthcare providers and services across the province. It maintains detailed data tables that cover health service delivery and health indicators across different communities and demographic groups in New Brunswick.
