Brightshores Health System puts call out for new board members

New board members are being sought by Brightshores Health System (BHS).

A statement from BHS says that the organization "is undergoing an exciting evolution as it continues to strengthen its role as a leading regional healthcare provider."

As part of that, BHS is in the early stages of developing a new strategic plan, and new board members are needed.

Interested applicants must have governance experience, bring expertise in research and/or education, and reside within the BHS catchment area.

That includes the communities surrounding the hospitals in Lion’s Head, Markdale, Meaford, Owen Sound, Southampton, and Wiarton

You can visit the BHS website at www.brightshores.ca/about-us/board-of-directors/ to apply to be on its board of directors.
