Welcome

The South Island MSA supports and advocates for the Medical Staff at Royal Jubilee Hospital and Victoria General Hospital.

Our vision is to create an engaged medical community at RJH and VGH that works collaboratively with practitioners and our Health Authority partners to optimize quality patient care and provider well-being.

We hope this site will be your reference for news, events, resources, and opportunities, and will help you connect with colleagues and your MSA.
