Patrick Madigan, president of the board of trustees and interim CEO, told KGAB radio the search will take about nine months.
Mr. Madigan said the hospital decided to hire a corporate “headhunter” to conduct the search. Once a company is chosen, the hospital will nationally advertise the position. Mr. Madigan said he is not interested in the permanent CEO role.
The board recommends that each candidate be familiar with the day-to-day operations and managing a large-scale health facility like CRMC. While the search will be national, Mr. Madigan said a regional or “homegrown [background] would be a bonus.”
The most important characteristic of the new CEO, Mr. Madigan said, is someone who will strive to improve patient care and be able to deal with the changes the hospital must undergo as specified under the Affordable Care Act.
