A DEPUTY who spent years in the local health care service has quit the Health and Social Services board.

The department is looking to elect a replacement for the departing Deputy Sandra James, pictured, at next month's States meeting.

The retired nurse, who had more than 35 years' experience in the field, has not given a reason for her resignation.

The replacement will sit on the board for the remainder of Deputy James' term until May 2016.

With her resignation, HSSD has lost the experience of a respected retired health care professional, who is a former Royal College of Nursing council chairman.

n The new member will be elected at the States meeting which starts on Wednesday 29 January.
