TORONTO – The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) is delighted to announce the appointment of Dr. Sarah Muttitt (pictured) to the position of Chief Information Officer and Vice President of the Information Management and Technology portfolio at SickKids, effective July 2015.

This included the implementation of Singapore’s National Electronic Health Record and supporting services such as Enterprise Architecture, Standards, Identity and Security, and Clinical Informatics. Her work expanded to include Community Hospital and GP EMR implementation and Consumer Health for telehealth, personal health management and national call centre services.

Dr. Muttitt returned to Canada in 2013 to join Alberta Health Services and lead the Provincial Clinical Information System program, which is currently under way.
