Maja is proud to have worked for more than 20 years at Vernon Jubilee Hospital which is also the hospital that she was actually born in.  Her extensive administrative experience includes both private and public sector careers, but her passion remains in medical administration.  She has worked on more than 10 acute care units at Vernon Jubilee Hospital as a unit coordinator as well as held community positions in the Home Oxygen, Cardiac/Pulmonary Rehab, and Mental Health programs.  She subsequently managed Interior Health’s new corporate credentialing and privileging department.  Her team initiated the first successful electronic implementation of IH’s annual privileging process which became the gold standard for privileging and credentialing in BC.  In her leisure hours, Maja enjoys glam-camping, her husband’s gourmet cooking, and checking off bucket list items such as completing the Panama Canal transit via a cruise ship.  Contact Maja at administrative@vernonphysiciansociety.ca
