The council, which advises on regional health planning and resource allocation, is looking for qualified professionals to serve two-year terms starting immediately upon appointment.
Interested candidates must submit their applications by 3 p.m. on Wednesday, June 24, 2026. The positions are open to individuals working in fields such as medicine, nursing, dentistry, or other direct patient care roles.
