HSA’s Chief Executive Officer Lizzette Yearwood, Chief Financial Officer Dawn Cummings and Deputy Board Chairman Rolston Anglin accepted the awards, which were presented on 27 August during the Standing Public Accounts Committee presentation ceremony at the Legislative Assembly. They included the Unqualified Audit Opinion Award 2018, the 2019 Audit Efficiency Award and the 2018 Most Improved Award.

“It’s an honour to receive these awards and for our talented and dedicated employees at every level to be acknowledged for the consistent work they put in each day to make such an accomplishment a reality,” said Ms Yearwood.
