Our Board
We are very grateful for the efforts of our board, which is composed of volunteers from our community and the Health Services Professions.
Phyllis Loewen, Chair
It is my privilege to chair the Rocky Health Foundation Board. My experience working at the hospital has given me a unique insight into the needs of the Rocky HealthCare Centre. Over the years our board has worked to provide equipment to our hospital, which in turn, leads to better health in our region.
Terry Kalyn, Co Vice Chair
I am one of the founding members of the Hospital Foundation and have served on the board since 2002. I believe it is vital that the hospital continue to upgrade and maintain equipment and services to ensure that the overall operation of the hospital successfully fulfills its ongoing health care obligations to the community it serves.
Ann Stewart, Co Vice Chair
Rocky has been my home for over 40 years. I've raised my family, worked and volunteered within the community. I believe that good healthcare is vital to each of us from birth to retirement and beyond, and I'm proud to be able to serve on the Rocky Health Foundation since 2007.
Dale Shippelt, Treasurer
Dale has lived and worked in Rocky Mountain House for 43 years. His experience in business is a valuable asset to the Foundation. Dale chose to volunteer for the Foundation because he believes every person deserves the best possible care they can receive and the Foundation helps to keep care close to home.
