Joining the Ontario Health Team of Northumberland (OHT-N) as Executive Lead is Andrea Groff, bringing a wealth of expertise in healthcare leadership and operations.
Formerly with the Health for All Family Health Team, Andrea’s experience in primary care and community services will be instrumental in advancing OHT-N’s strategic priorities.
Co-chaired by Taryn Rennicks and Susan Walsh, OHT-N focuses on enhancing access to care and supporting mental health services.
“Andrea joins the OHT-N as an experienced health care leader at a very exciting time,” said Susan Walsh. “Northumberland was one of the first 24 Ontario Health Teams in the province and we are more committed than ever to achieving the province’s vision of a better connected, people-centred health care system. Our partnership has grown, and other voices are welcomed to move this work forward. We require strong leadership at the centre to support the great ambitions we have and we are confident that Andrea has the skills and energy to move the OHT-N’s work forward.”
“We have all been working hard to set and move forward the OHT-N priorities that are right for this community at this time,” added Taryn Rennicks “The focused leadership that Andrea will bring, at this time, cannot be understated. We have much work to do and we are thrilled that she has chosen to bring her skills and experience to Northumberland.”
Recent initiatives like the Volunteer Peer Support program and a Rural Outreach Clinic highlight OHT-N’s commitment to local health improvement.
