Provincial Health Minister Mark McLane has announced some steps being taken to help ensure a smooth transition in Health PEI’s leadership. Current Health PEI Chief Executive Officer Dr. Michael Gardam gave notice this past July that he would be resigning his position effective March 31, 2024. Minister McLane and Health PEI Board of Directors Chair Diane Griffin have appointed Corinne Rowswell as Acting CEO, effective January 1, 2024 until a permanent CEO is appointed. Rowswell is currently Health PEI’s Chief Operating Officer. Dr. Gardam has agreed to continue to work with Health PEI until March 29, 2024 in an advisory role to aid in the transition. In the meantime, an executive search firm has been engaged to lead the search for the next CEO of Health PEI.
