CLINICAL & SYSTEMS TRANSFORMATION CAREERS
CLINICAL & SYSTEMS TRANSFORMATION PROJECT
The Clinical & Systems Transformation (CST) project is a large-scale, multi-year project between the Provincial Health Services Authority (PHSA), Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) and Providence Health Care (PHC). Designed to transform clinical practices and systems – ultimately improving the safety, quality and consistency of patient care – our goal is to deliver streamlined care through standardized clinical practices and a fully integrated clinical information system.
CST will support the health organizations in establishing common clinical and process standards, including workflows, order sets, clinical guidelines, integrated care plans and a common electronic health record.
This transformation will be supported by the implementation of a common clinical information system, called CST Cerner, which will replace multiple existing systems. Join us for a unique opportunity to create a more seamless and positive experience for patients, province-wide!

Testimonials
"Our proudest accomplishment to date is the successful implementations of CST at Burnaby Centre for Mental Health & Addiction and Heartwood Centre for Women. It was amazing to see how we were able to creatively provide training and go-live support, while balancing the safety requirements related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Prab Gill Director, Quality, Safety & Systems Improvement, BC Mental Health & Substance Use Services
Since we have gone live with CST, we have learned that transformation is not a one-time event, but a journey. Once you set out on that journey, you see benefits to the patients through clinical care, increased safety, and better data - and that makes it all worth it. With two successful implementations under our belt, we are now excited and looking forward to getting our upcoming sites ready to transform and adopt CST."
“As a CST Peer Mentor, I have enjoyed my role in supporting the transition from paper charting to PowerChart. The staff at Heartwood Centre for Women have done such an incredible job navigating the various changes throughout the entire transition period, which is inspiring to witness. Their competence with and ability to navigate the system makes me feel confident that all worksites will be able to embrace this change. CST is this amazing tool that allows us to streamline and standardize care. I am excited to see how CST will contribute to safer patient-centered care as more sites go live, and to see the overall positive impact this system will have for people accessing services.”
