Board of directors
The Covenant Health Board of Directors includes nine members appointed by our Catholic sponsor, Spiritus Vitae.
Our board plays a vital role in determining how we run our organization. It helps us:
- develop our vision
- plan strategies
- engage with our communities
- monitor our sites
- liaise with doctors
Board committees
To carry out its role, the board works through five committees:
- audit and finance
- governance
- mission and engagement
- quality and system performance
- growth and innovation

Our commitment to ethical integrity
All Covenant board and board committee members must sign a declaration and conflict of interest disclosure every year. In doing so, they commit to serving the organization with integrity and a high standard of ethics.
