Sioux Center, Iowa — It was recently announced that the CEO of the Orange City hospital had received national recognition. On the heels of that news comes news that the Sioux Center Health CEO has also received the same kind of recognition.
Sioux Center Health tells us their CEO, Cory Nelson, has been recognized in Becker’s Hospital Review among 67 CEOs and top leaders of critical access hospitals from across the U.S. The leaders recognized have successfully navigated their organizations through the COVID-19 pandemic and continue to focus on growing access to care as a valuable community resource.
