Lyn Hall named new chair of Northern Health Board
Hall, a longtime Prince George leader, will guide Northern Health as it supports services across the North and completes a leadership transition.
On Wednesday, B.C. Minister of Health Ravi Kahlon appointed Lyn Hall as chair of the Northern Health Board, succeeding Colleen Nyce after nine years in the role.
Nyce served nine years as chair and 11 years on the board overall, overseeing significant infrastructure development and COVID-19 pandemic pressures; she will remain on the board until the end of 2026 to ensure a seamless transition.
Hall brings decades of leadership experience as a longtime Prince George resident, having previously served as school trustee, city councillor, regional district director, and mayor of Prince George.
Minister Kahlon thanked Nyce for her service and congratulated Hall for stepping into the leadership role, citing his extensive experience in northern British Columbia.
"It is an honour to serve as chair," Hall said, as he aims to work with health-care teams, Indigenous partners, and communities to advance Northern Health's strategic priorities.
