Health Matters | spring 2008

Letter from the CEO

For 80 years, Halifax Health has met the healthcare needs and exceeded the service expectations of our community. Halifax District Hospital opened on January 3, 1928, and a lot has changed since then. We have opened new facilities, developed new programs and performed awe-inspiring surgeries. We now have thousands of talented employees, physicians and volunteers who touch the lives of patients each day. Our clinical outcomes and quality scores place us among the industry’s elite, and our status as a preferred employer is a testament to our unique culture.

During the upcoming year, we are planning many special events to celebrate our eight decades of quality care and service. We will also look forward to what lies ahead: continuing to bring world-class technology and talent to the region, and expanding our services and care. Our vision and determination are setting the groundwork for Halifax Health’s next 80 years. These are exciting times for us all.

Regards,

Jeff Feasel
