Life at WAHA


A beacon of healing, wellness, and innovation, WAHA connects remote communities with the care they deserve.


With spellbinding views surrounding each site, team members bask in the tranquility of the land, juxtaposed against


a bustling workplace busy addressing the complex needs of the region. Here, we work with purpose, knowing each


action matters. Patients are neighbours, family, and colleagues. Each day brings a challenge- the good kind that


stretches you, helps you grow, and makes you feel vital. These hurdles birth opportunities to problem solve, develop


new skills, and explore new roles. Here, we step into a version of ourselves once forgotten, overshadowed by the


daily grind, and rediscover a deep connection with ourselves, the land, and each other. Here, we experience work


with wonder. #WeAreWAHA
