There are some changes in the team that provides direction to people working at local hospitals.
At Tuesday’s meeting, Quinte Health announced its 2026/27 Board of Directors.
The Board has appointed the following Executive Officers for the 2026/27 Board year:
• Chair: Gary Hannaford

Hannaford has served on the Quinte Health Board since 2020 and most recently held the position of Vice-Chair.
Following three years as Board Chair, Lisa O’Toole has concluded her term as Chair and will continue contributing to the Board’s work as a director as she completes her ninth and final year of
service.
During her tenure as Chair, the Board advanced a number of significant organizational priorities, including the launch of Quality at Quinte, Clinical Services Planning, strengthened collaboration
with Foundation partners, ongoing governance development and continued advocacy for sustainable healthcare services across the region.
“I am incredibly proud of what we have accomplished together as a Board and organization,
particularly our focus on quality improvement, long-term planning and building stronger

and honoured to have served as Chair. I look forward to continuing to support the Board as a
