South Shore Health Welcomes New CEO

There's new leadership at South Shore Health. Janet Knox will take over the top position within the local health authority as the president and chief executive officer. Knox currently heads up Annapolis Valley Health - and has held that position for the past ten years. She says ensuring there's a smooth transition when health authorities amalgamate next April is a top priority.



Knox will maintain her position in the valley and will assume a shared role with South Shore Health. She was officially welcomed to the area today during a regular board meeting in Bridgewater. It fills a position left vacant when former president and CEO Dr. Peter Vaughan took a position with the Department of Health.
