Three new volunteer directors are joining the Arnprior Regional Health Board.
Each director will serve a three-year term, and provide strategic guidance and leadership as ARH completes the Grove redevelopment project and navigates healthcare delivery during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The three new board directors are: Oliver Jacob, Barbara Kieley and Mark MacGowan.
They replace departing directors: Deborah Clark, Becky Hollingsworth and Valerie Habraken.
