Board of Directors
Purpose
The Board of Directors is the Association’s governing and policy-making body. On behalf of registered nurses in New Brunswick, the Board ensures that the Association achieves the results defined in the Ends policies in the best interest of the public.
Structure
The twelve member Board of Directors is comprised of a President, President-Elect, seven Directors and three Public Directors.
The President-Elect is elected by mail ballot for a two year term which is followed by a two year term as President. The seven Directors are elected by mail ballot for two year terms by members living within their respective geographic regions. The three Public Directors are appointed by the Minister of Health and by the Lieutenant-Governor in Council for two year terms.
Policy Governance
The Board of Directors adopted Carver’s model of policy governance in 1993. The goal of adopting this model was to clearly separate the role of governance from the role of management thereby empowering both the Board and staff to contribute more effectively and appropriately to the Association.
