Leading the way - Excellence Award recognizes outstanding performance at RUIS McGill

Johanne Desrochers, Associate Director of RUIS McGill Telehealth is the recipient of the RUIS McGill Leadership Excellence Award.  “Her commitment, vigour and impact are greatly appreciated,” said Dr. David Eidelman, President of RUIS McGill, and Vice-Principal (Health Affairs) and Dean of the Faculty of Medicine at McGill University.

“RUIS McGill’s Telehelath program started with Johanne Desrochers,” added Dr. Eidleman. Under her leadership, Telehealth was established at the Montreal Children’s Hospital. She later developed it into a network-wide program within the RUIS McGill regions.

The award was handed out during the recent inaugural RUIS McGill Symposium.
