Our Board

The North West Hospital and Health Board is responsible for the governance activities of the North West Hospital and Health Service, deriving its authority from the Hospital and Health Boards Act 2011 and the Hospital and Health Boards Regulation 2012. The Board, through the Chair, reports to the Minister for Health and Minister for Ambulance Services.

There is a clear distinction between the strategic role of the Board and the operational role of the Executive. The Board oversees the service for which it is established, whilst the Chief Executive and leadership team are responsible for implementing the Board’s directions and for the day-to-day management of the service.

The North West Hospital and Health Board comprises nine independent members who draw upon their individual skills and experience to set the strategic direction of the health service and deliver on key priorities for our communities.
