(KIM) is proud to announce the appointment of Michelle Monkman to the permanent role of chief executive officer, effective immediately. Monkman has served as interim CEO of KIM following the passing of former CEO Dr. Barry Lavallee in January 2026.

With more than 22 years of experience, she is a senior health executive advancing First Nations–led health systems in northern Manitoba, informed by work across Indigenous communities at the national level.

To KIM, Monkman brings extensive leadership experience spanning public health, harm reduction, primary care, long-term care, education, and health system transformation. She has led the development and implementation of innovative models of care focused on advancing cultural safety, addressing anti-First Nations racism, and improving access, quality, and measurable health outcomes.

Shared Health is taking important steps forward in its commitment to addressing racism with the release of two comprehensive anti-racism policies. These policies apply to all Shared Health employees, staff, board members, students and learners, and independent contractors. The Anti-Racism Policy establishes clear expectations and shared accountability to ensure our workplace is inclusive, respectful, and free from discrimination for all patients, families, and staff.

The development of these policies would not have been possible without the invaluable contributions of individuals and partners across our healthcare system, as well as community and Indigenous organizations. We extend our sincere appreciation to everyone who generously shared their time, knowledge, and perspectives to help shape these policies.

Learn more about the policies and discover supporting documents, including a handbook for patients, families, and visitors, at https://sharedhealthmb.ca/about/racism-disrupted/policies-resources/.
