What We Do

We are committed to advancing the health and wellbeing of the people of the Cayman Islands through strategic policy development, impactful programmes, and proactive services that foster lasting change. Our mission is to build a healthier, more resilient community by enhancing access to quality healthcare, promoting wellness initiatives, and advocating for policies that protect, empower, and uplift individuals. Guided by the principles of justice, integrity, and excellence, we uphold the highest standards of fairness, transparency, and accountability in all that we do.

As the central authority for health governance, we oversee the strategic direction and performance of three key entities: the Health Services Authority, the Department of Health Regulatory Services, and the Mosquito Research & Control Unit. Through strong leadership and collaboration, we ensure these organisations operate effectively to safeguard public health and enhance the well-being of our nation.
