Box 70, Mattawa, Ontario P0H 1V0 Phone: 705-744-5511 Fax: 705-744-6020 Email: [email protected] Date of birth: June 30, 1975 Nominator: Prefix: Ms. Name: Jocelyne Title: Contant Organization: “retired” Address: 6958 Du Bois Avenue, Ottawa, Ontario K1C 5L5 Phone: 613-837-6096 Fax: N/A Email: [email protected] Summary As Jérémy’s colleague since 2006, I have witnessed time and again his unrelenting enthusiasm for leadership and dedication to learning as he grew his career in health services management. Regionally at the Champlain LHIN he facilitated the coordination of stakeholders in Renfrew County and led the new 30 million dollar “Aging at Home” initiative. In Barry’s Bay as COO of St. Francis Memorial Hospital, Jérémy led the collaborative effort necessary to create the rural health hub model. And now in Mattawa as the CEO of the Hospital and the LTC Home he is integrating both organizations and rebuilding the LTC to create its Health Hub. His leadership has also generated several integration projects such as the first merger in Ontario of a community health centre with a rural hospital; furthermore, he implemented an effective deficit elimination strategy. As is the case with effective leaders everywhere, Jérémy achieves results through team work where he demonstrates vision and the skills necessary to motivate others. Not only does Jérémy exercise his leadership professionally, he is very involved in his community at large where he volunteers as a Church Leader, coaches and runs sports leagues, and stays involved with the University of Ottawa MHA program and the Ontario Hospital Association (OHA) Leadership committees. Indeed in 2012, the OHA awarded Jérémy the Small, Rural and Northern Award of Excellence. His experience and learning to date have prepared Jérémy very well for continued growth in the field of health care management. His accomplishments deserve the Robert Zed Young Health Leader Award.

o Jeremy was instrumental in the creation of the first full community integration working group in Champlain
