“I’m very pleased that Dr. Verna Yiu has been named AHS President and CEO. My goal is to make sure Albertans get the right care, in the right place, at the right time, by the right provider. Achieving this goal requires strong leaders who are committed to working together to ensure we have a stable health system that remains on solid fiscal footing for years to come. Dr. Yiu has proven herself such a leader. I look forward to continuing to work in partnership with both Dr. Yiu and with AHS Board Chair Linda Hughes over the coming years.”

Sarah Hoffman, Minister of Health
