The Partnerships & Communication portfolio is an exciting new portfolio within MAA. Developed in June 2023, the portfolio exists to bolster communication, partnerships, and engagement with medical staff across Island Health, and key external partners.
This portfolio consists of two main facets covering a breadth of work: Partnerships & Programs, which includes the Associate Physician Program, Resident Doctor Onboarding and Support, and the Extraordinary Temporary Support Program; and Communication, Education & Development, which oversees all medical staff communications channels, Medical Leader Education & Development, and Rural Programs.
Meaningful medical staff input and engagement informs all projects within the portfolio.
