About Salus Global Corporation
A Leader in Delivering Safety Performance Solutions
Salus Global Corporation
was developed through the
combined investiture of the
Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists
of Canada (SOGC) and Healthcare
Insurance Reciprocal of Canada (HIROC).
Salus Global Corporation
enables greater patient safety performance by healthcare professionals and their teams. Salus Global Corporation delivers high-quality programs that identify and address the needs of healthcare teams by improving their inter-professional learning, communication, teamwork, and culture. This in turn results in improved patient outcomes and resource utilization.
Salus' corporate name and
brand icon were carefully
considered and selected when the
company was formed in 2007 to represent the Vision and Mission of the organization, its supporting partners, and the healthcare professionals participating in its program(s).
Salus
Salus has a special meaning for the new corporation as it translates from Latin to mean “health, wellness, prosperity, good wishes, and safety”. Additionally, the Romans celebrated Salus extensively as the goddess of health and prosperity. Salus was seen as the “protector of personal health”.
Global
The word “Global” was also chosen carefully to reflect the broader geographic scope of the new company’s mandate. As Salus Global Corporation the company will expand significantly into the United States and will begin addressing opportunities outside of North America as appropriate.
The Logo
Graphically, the logo shown above is a stylized version of a globe with three “flights” of motion representing our commitment to the key value propositions of Safety, Performance, and Solutions that we provide to our clients. The stylization was designed also to evoke the notion of the fragile “egg” shape being encased in the protective environment that Salus helps to create.
The corporate headquarters for Salus Global Corporation is located in London, Ontario Canada. Salus operates under a Board of Directors made up of representatives from the two parent organizations and other key members from the healthcare field and private sector. Salus Global Corporation’s business focus is the development, marketing and operational support of its programs and solution tools to improve performance and safety in the healthcare sector.
