Louis Giancola, president and CEO of Wakefield, R.I.-based South County Health, is retiring, according to a report by The Independent.
Here are three points:
1. Mr. Giancola assumed the role 18 years ago.
2. During his tenure, he "made a generational impact on South County Health," said Dennis Lynch, chairman of the organization's board of trustees, according to the report. "The legacy he leaves is one of a robust, financially stable, independent healthcare system delivering high quality care across Washington County and beyond."
3. He will continue as president and CEO while the organization searches for his successor.
