Ms. Trompeter is president of OSF HealthCare Saint Elizabeth Medical Center with campuses in Peru and Ottawa, Ill. Her leadership was pivotal during a time of community need, as she led the rapid expansion of emergency and outpatient services following the unexpected closure of a local hospital in Peru. Under her direction, the hospital swiftly introduced accessible care options, including urgent care, primary care, digital care, OB/GYN, occupational health and rehabilitation services. Her work has directly contributed to OSF Saint Elizabeth being named one of the 2025 “Top 100 Rural & Community Hospitals” by The Chartis Center for Rural Health, recognizing its excellence in performance and patient care. In fiscal year 2024, the two campuses employed nearly 800, served over 82,000 patients, and recorded more than 40,000 emergency department visits.
