Working Remotely

The SAMRT office is closed to public during COVID-19 and staff are working remotely.  The decision to move to a remote operations model was made to ensure business and regulatory continuity, maintain staff health, and prevent possible service disruptions.

  • Licensing and essential services will continue to operate as previous.
  • Emails, telephone calls and online forms will be managed remotely.
  • Our systems allow us to continue to operate with minimal disruptions, with no impact to our public protection mandate.
  • If you require SAMRT assistance, please contact our office as usual via email and/or telephone at 306.525.9678. We will respond within two business days.

Supporting Saskatchewan Regulated Health Care Professionals During the COVID-19 Response

The COVID-19 pandemic is difficult and challenging for our health care system. During a surge in COVID-19 cases, you may be required to adapt your usual practice. You may be asked to work in unfamiliar settings or outside of your typical role for the benefit of patients. You are not expected to practice beyond the professional scope of practice of your profession nor beyond your individual competence. As the province plans its response, your role is vital to patients receiving safe, competent and ethical care. 

Read the principles and expectations for practice here.
