The Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre (SLMHC) has appointed a new board chair.
Kristen Carroll was named to the position Tuesday.
Carroll comes to the job after serving on the board for two years.
According to a release from the SLMHC, she brings extensive experience in health governance, program delivery and emergency management.
“I am dedicated to strengthening partnerships, promoting collaborative governance and ensuring that SLMHC delivers culturally responsive and exemplary health services to the communities under its care,” Carroll said in a release.
Carroll replaces Sadie Maxwell, who had served as board chair for many years.
“I am deeply grateful to the SLMHC board of directors for your unwavering support and guidance throughout my tenure as the board chair,” Maxwell said. “It has been a privilege and an honour to work alongside such dedicated and hardworking staff.”
Maxwell will remain a member of the board, representing the Windigo First Nations council.
