Sault Area Hospital (SAH) is inviting community members to apply for positions on its Board of Directors.

Board members will provide strategic oversight, ensure strong governance, and contribute to the long-term sustainability and quality of hospital services.

Why it matters

Board members will be expected to attend regular meetings, actively participate on the board and its subcommittees, prepare for meetings, and potentially take on leadership roles. The hospital is also welcoming individuals interested in gaining governance experience to serve as Community Members.

• Applications are being accepted starting today, February 9, 2026.
