Advisory Panel Member Profile

Ellen Pitcher

Vice President Patient Care Services/CNO

Areas of Expertise:

As a senior healthcare executive with more than 30 years of progressive leadership experience in nursing, operations, process improvement, implementation of best practices, and electronic medical records, I love to inspire others toward successful achievement of hospital and system goals. I've held leadership roles in small and large public, not-for-profit and for-profit facilities and am able to adapt to a variety of organizational structures.

I have expertise in change management, Pathway’s to Excellence, Magnet Accreditation and the Malcolm Baldrige process. One of my strengths is assessing and implementing new healthcare delivery systems and leading change that creates operational results that support the guiding principles of value-based health care. I understand the impact of models of care on financial viability, quality of care, physician/staff satisfaction, and patient/family satisfaction, and appreciate the discipline and leadership required to create this sustainable change, which results in a positive bottom line and highly effective interdisciplinary teams.
