St. Joseph Regional Medical Center in Lewiston, Idaho, appointed Angela Green, BSN, to the newly created chief nursing officer and chief operating officer role, the hospital said in an April 21 Facebook post.
Ms. Green brings more than 15 years of senior healthcare leadership experience and has served in the dual role on an interim basis for the past six months.
She was initially transferred to the hospital from ScionHealth, a Louisville, Ky.-based health system, to fill the COO role on an interim basis, according to the Lewiston Tribune. She later applied for the permanent position after “falling in love with the community, city and staff,” she told the publication.
In her new role, Ms. Green will oversee pharmacy, respiratory services, laboratory, and quality and learning, as well as a newly created assistant chief nursing officer position, the Tribune reported.
St. Joseph Regional Medical Center is the largest full-service hospital between Boise, Idaho, and Spokane, Wash., with more than 100 board-certified physicians and providers, according to its website. The Catholic hospital is a founding member of ScionHealth.
