The President and CEO of Eastern Ontario’s children’s hospital will soon be leaving the role.
Alex Munter will be moving on in October to become CEO of the Canadian Medical Association after thirteen years at CHEO.
A letter from the Chair for the CHEO Board of Directors, Jo-Anne Poirier, says that thanks to Munter’s innovative approach, they have been able to grow CHEO to better meet the needs of a growing population of children, youth and families.
She says that he is the longest serving children’s hospital CEO in the country and longest serving hospital CEO in Ottawa.
Poirier adds that the CHEO Board of Directors will be actively recruiting a successor in the coming months.
