Bynoe-Sutherland to depart QEH

After four years on the job, Executive Chairman of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH) Juliette Bynoe-Sutherland will part ways with the healthcare institution on June 3.
A statement issued by the QEH late Friday evening said Bynoe-Sutherland, who joined the hospital on December 18, 2019, was leaving to pursue another professional opportunity.
Her departure will see a return of the separation of the role of chairman and chief executive officer and the requirements to facilitate that change are being addressed by the Ministry of Health and Wellness, the QEH said.
Recruitment of a new CEO will be launched locally and internationally on April 16.
“The Board is sufficiently satisfied that having strengthened the management layer, the capacity of QEH is sufficiently expanded that the hospital can return to the traditional governance model,” the hospital statement said.
The QEH praised Bynoe-Sutherland’s performance, noting that she “led the institution’s national response to the COVID-19 pandemic with outstanding results, even as she and her management team successfully executed major infrastructural and programmatic changes as part of a service-transformation initiative”.
