Ms. McSweeney became hospital president of Sequoia Hospital and Dominican Hospital in April 2026, overseeing operations and strategic growth for both facilities within Dignity Health’s California region. She joined from Chicago-based CommonSpirit Health’s Utah market, where she served as president of Holy Cross Hospital–Jordan Valley and Holy Cross Hospital–West Valley. Under her leadership, Holy Cross Hospital–Jordan Valley was recognized as a Leapfrog “Top General Hospital,” making it the sole recipient in Utah, and was named by Healthgrades among the top 5% of hospitals for patient safety. She oversaw millions of dollars in facility upgrades, including a new cardiac catheterization lab and lobby remodel at Holy Cross Hospital–West Valley and a new hyperbaric unit at Holy Cross Hospital–Jordan Valley. The Cancer Center at Jordan Valley became the first in Utah to use radioactive tiles for brain tumor treatment and introduced low-dose radiation therapy for osteoarthritis, while Ms. McSweeney also worked with a legislator to pass a bill broadening the scope of practice for emergency medical services workers in hospital emergency departments. A proven culture-builder, she launched engagement initiatives such as “Breakfast with Christine” and the “We Are” campaign, and partnered with the Utah Food Bank to establish a food pantry at Holy Cross Hospital–West Valley addressing food insecurity among patients.
