Commissioner's update for offenders and their families: October 20, 2025
This content is a message to federal offenders and their families from Correctional Service Canada's (CSC's) Commissioner.
Next week will mark Canadian Patient Safety Week. At Correctional Service Canada, providing high-quality and safe healthcare is one of our top priorities.
Your Health Services team works hard every day to:
- provide high-quality and compassionate care
- respond to your mental and physical health needs
- address emergencies
- treat you with respect and dignity
As a patient, you can work with your healthcare team to maintain a safe and secure environment. I also want to remind you to please be respectful and follow the guidance of healthcare professionals. They are here to help you.
I encourage you to take a moment to recognize the staff who are providing you with exceptional, high-quality care.
If you have questions about your healthcare, please let us know.
The greatest wealth is health.
