A significant leadership transition is underway at Belize’s largest healthcare institution, the Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital (KHMH). Chandra Nisbet-Cansino, who has served as CEO since 2021, has decided not to renew her contract, which is set to expire in the coming months. This decision marks the beginning of a search for new leadership to steer the hospital forward. While Health Minister Kevin Bernard clarified that he is not directly involved in board decisions, he acknowledged that the Ministry of Health maintains representation through CEO Julio Sabido, who sits on the KHMH board. Minister Bernard emphasized that the board has already convened to draft the terms of reference for the upcoming recruitment process. He expressed optimism about finding a suitable successor swiftly and extended his best wishes to Ms. Nisbet-Cansino for her future endeavors, noting her significant contributions to the hospital and her roles in other organizations. This leadership change raises questions about the future direction of KHMH and its impact on Belize’s healthcare system.
