The Board operates under Governance principles, which means that Gateway Health has an effective control environment in which business risks are properly identified and managed. This in turn gives us a clear operational framework through which the organisation will achieve its strategic objectives.
Currently the Board of Directors is made up of community members who have been duly elected. If you are interested in contacting any of our Board Members, please make enquiries through reception services at 155 High St, Wodonga.
