Nassau, Bahamas -
Doctors Hospital has announced
that Human Resources executive Karen Carey has been appointed to the
company’s Board of Directors.
Carey, who serves as Senior
Vice President of Human Resources at Kerzner International Bahamas Limited
fills a position made vacant by the untimely death last year of Dr Keva
Bethel.
“We are fortunate to have
someone with Karen Carey’s experience and expertise in human resources
and operational business planning join the organization at this level,”
said Doctors Hospital Chairman Joe Krukowski, adding “as Doctors Hospital
continues to develop new channels of business to ensure the company
remains the leader in healthcare in The Bahamas, it is important that
we continue to seek out industry leaders to help lead the way.”
Karen Carey is a member of
the executive team at Atlantis and the One&Only Ocean Club, leading
the human resources strategy with a combined workforce of more than
7500. Her experience in policy design and administration, cost and revenue
improvements and employee and customer engagement were key to her selection.
Another factor in the decision
to ask Karen Carey to join the Board was her experience in the hospitality
industry.
“As we continue with our
plan to re-open the Western Medical Plaza in just a few months and expand
and develop our International Patient Program, it seemed natural that
we look to the hospitality industry to fill this position at the Board
level,” explained Doctors Hospital President Barry Rassin.
Carey has extensive experience
in the Bahamian hospitality industry and is excited to bring that knowledge
to another industry seeking to create direct linkages to the tourism
field.
“I am delighted to join such
a talented team of individuals. I look forward to contributing
to the shared vision for Doctors Hospital’s growth and market expansion,”
she said.
Doctors Hospital remains the
first and only acute care facility in the region to earn Joint Commission
International accreditation and is committed to providing the highest
level of healthcare to Bahamians and to international patients seeking
healthcare in The Bahamas.
