Her report and the draft it is based on can be found at www.ombudsman.bm.

Chairman, Mr Jonathan Brewin, comments: “I am very pleased that we are able to make this Review available to the public. Activity has already started at BHB under the current Board, which first met in January 2013. We remain absolutely committed to moving BHB forward as a well-run, accountable and transparent organization providing a high quality of care for Bermuda residents.”

CEO, Venetta Symonds, comments: “It is the first time a report of this nature has been undertaken, and the first time that the Ombudsman of Bermuda has been involved in this way. It has been a complex process and I would like to thank the many, many individuals and groups who spent time with Howard Associates as information and perceptions were gathered.”
