Mr. Cooke serves as region I CNO at Prime Healthcare, providing regional leadership for nursing and patient care services across hospitals in California and Nevada. He evaluates clinical service delivery, reviews performance, and recommends improvements that strengthen programs and reinforce safe, high-quality care. Mr. Cooke works closely with hospital leaders and regional teams to advance quality improvement, enhance the patient experience and support nursing professional development. He also provides strategic direction for emergency department operations and growth initiatives across region I hospitals. Earlier this year, he played a central role in integrating nursing operations following Prime’s acquisition of nine hospitals and multiple care sites from St. Louis-based Ascension’s Illinois sites, supporting a smooth transition for patients and staff. His collaborative approach helps align regional nursing operations with Prime’s mission of compassionate care while supporting continued system growth.
