FREDERICTON (GNB) November 24 2020– Dr. France Desrosiers, a physician and a senior executive, has been named chief executive officer of Vitalité Health Network effective Nov. 30.

“Dr. Desrosiers knows our health-care system first-hand and her experience as a physician and executive leadership member will be definite assets for Vitalité Health Network and our province,” said Health Minister Dorothy Shephard.

She is a member of the New Brunswick Medical Society, the New Brunswick College of Physicians and Surgeons and member and fellow of the College of Family Physicians of Canada.

“I thank Dr. Desrosiers for accepting this position and look forward to working with her,” said Michelyne Paulin, chair of the board of directors of Vitalité Health Network. “She is a highly qualified and competent person. Her progressive vision of the health system and her extraordinary ability to manage many complex issues make her the perfect person to lead the network.”

Paulin also thanked Shephard and the senior officials of the department for their professionalism and invaluable collaboration throughout the recruitment process.

“With the support of the firm Odgers Berndtson, a national recruitment campaign was carried out in accordance with all the proper rules to provide the network with a competent president and CEO, one who is able to lead our organization through the next transformations the New Brunswick health care needs,” said Paulin.
