A Conversation with Jitendra Prasad

One of AHS’ greatest strengths is our people. From those working behind the scenes to those on the frontline, everyone contributes toward our goal of providing safe, quality care to all Albertans.

Jitendra Prasad (or JP, as most call him), our Chief Program Officer for Contracting, Procurement and Supply Management, is one of those people. The work of JP and his team has led to AHS developing one of the top health supply chain management programs in the world. This has been instrumental during the pandemic, most especially when it comes to procuring the PPE that keeps our people safe.

Unfortunately for us, after more than 35 years in healthcare, JP is leaving us for a well-deserved retirement next month. With that in mind, I invited him on the vlog to talk about his career in CPSM and what might lie ahead for the industry.
