Infant (< 1 year of age) Mortality Rate per 1,000 Live Births, On-Reserve, 2018

Notes: The infant mortality rate (IMR) is defined as the number of infant deaths in a population, less than one year of age, for every thousand live births. In other words, it is the probability of a child dying within the first year of life per 1000 live births. IMR is a comprehensive reflection of population health; including the physical, social and economic conditions that a child is born into. The figures are for individuals registered to a Saskatchewan FN band and residing on-reserve. Registered Indian Status was determined by self-declaration in the Vital Statistics System. Population counts were provided by Indigenous Services Canada.
