HPHA is a multi-site organization that includes Clinton Public Hospital, St. Marys Memorial Hospital, Seaforth Community Hospital and Stratford General Hospital.

ROLE

The Regional Clinical Planning and Transformation Lead will lead through influence by coordinating existing regional initiatives, planning tables, leadership groups, and organizational resources to advance clinical system transformation.
