An experienced nursing administrator who has risen rapidly through the leadership ranks to the top, Ms. Dock is Piedmont Augusta’s first African-American CNO, and the first African-American female on the executive leadership team in the hospital’s 205-year history. She oversees patient care services across the three hospitals that make up Piedmont’s Augusta clinical hub. A renowned clinical leader statewide and nationally, she was instrumental in the development of Augusta Technical College’s School of Nursing and Allied Health partnership and expansion to the Piedmont Augusta Summerville Campus. In 2022, Ms. Dock was asked by Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp to serve on his statewide workforce development taskforce. She first joined the hospital in 2003 as a patient care assistant and was formerly a Piedmont hospital vice president and CNO and a director of orthopedics, spine and medical and surgical services.
