Rehab Chief Executive Steps Down
Angela Kerins is to retire from her post as Rehab Group Chief Executive.
Chairman of the Rehab Group, Brian Kerr said: "Angela Kerins has led the Rehab Group with dedication and resolve. During her two decades with the organisation she has always striven to ensure that those who needed its services received the best possible support. The Board would like to thank Ms Kerins sincerely for her leadership of the Rehab Group over the last seven years and wish her every success in the future."
In a message to Rehab Group staff Ms Kerins said: "In recent months, I have become increasingly concerned about the toll that public controversy has taken on the Rehab Group and my own family. While I have dedicated my energies and ability to growing and developing the Rehab Group for the last 22 years I am of the view that it is in the best interests of all concerned that I step down at this time.
"In doing so I hope the organisation can focus its entire energies on its core activity of developing and delivering services to people with disabilities and others who are disadvantaged. I want to thank my many colleagues for their great support throughout my time in Rehab. I wish everyone, the people who work for Rehab and the people who use its services, all the very best."
