Catholic Health board chair Maureen Athoe said: “We’re extremely fortunate to have an outstanding, proven healthcare veteran for our next leader.

“Joyce’s strong advocacy for our patients, physicians and caregivers, track record of success, steady leadership style and devotion to Catholic Health’s mission made her the ideal person to serve as our next president and CEO.”

Catholic Health’s outgoing president and CEO Mark Sullivan has led the healthcare system since 2018, having worked for Catholic Health since 1994.

In his roles, he supported the roll-out of the group’s Epic electronic health records system and oversaw its response to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Sullivan said: “I’m excited for the next chapter at Catholic Health and handing the reigns to an incredible leader and person in Joyce Markiewicz.

“There is no doubt she will take the organisation to new levels while striving to ensure the community that entrusts us with its care has equitable access to high-quality healthcare.”

Markiewicz will take on her new roles on 1 September following Sullivan’s official exit on 31 August.

Earlier this year, Catholic Health announced plans to open Lockport Memorial Hospital at its Mount St Mary’s Hospital facility in New York next month.
