The MGEU Board of Directors is encouraging interested members to take an active role in the administration of our healthcare system by submitting an application to serve as a director on a Manitoba Regional Health Authority Board.
The Minister of Health will appoint directors to each Regional Health Authority (RHA) Board, representing a broad cross-section of interests, experience and expertise.
Nominees must:
• be eighteen (18) years of age as of the date of the
appointment;
• have a strong commitment to improving the health system,
to supporting their RHA and to improving the health of Manitobans;
• have strong communication skills;
• be able to attend board meetings on a regular basis; and
• be able to comply with regional conflict of interest
guidelines.
The following are NOT eligible to be directors:
• the CEO of the RHA, and
• any person who provides professional advice to the RHA for
remuneration. However, health care providers who provide services to the health region ARE
eligible for appointment to the board.
Other considerations for board appointments include
financial or legal skills; experience in leadership, business or human
resources; or familiarity with strategic planning and policy development.
If you would like to apply or nominate someone, download and fill out the
nomination form.
Applications are due December 15 and can be submitted to your RHA office or to the Minister of Health's office:
