In April 2022, a Chiefs-in-Summit resolution (PDF) was passed directing Health Transformation to work with Health Directors in the development of a Health System Governance model and mandating also, the development of a 5-year health Transformation workplan. This resolution was directly responsible for the establishment of a new Health Directors’ Association. The Health Directors’ Association (PDF) will:
- Lead the Health Human Resource Strategy, setting policy directions
- Be represented on the Chiefs’ Health Action Table
- Play an active role on setting the policy direction for a Governance model
- Play an active role in the board development of the future Health System
