Alberta Health Services (AHS) acknowledges that as a group, they are committed and intend to provide safe and healthy care and/or work environments. However, they also know that despite best efforts, things can sometimes go wrong. The AHS recognise that everyone has an important role to play in identifying, reporting and addressing issues or concerns about the health system and/or organisational processes, and to share what they learn, in support of continuous quality and safety improvement.

These are Alberta Health Services Guiding principles to a Just Culture.
