Board of Trustees

Adena Health is governed by a 13-member Board of Trustees that reflects both the health system’s historic roots and the needs of the communities it serves. The board includes representatives from the seven churches that founded the organization in 1895, along with at-large members and representatives from the health system’s medical staff. Together, trustees bring a wide range of expertise and perspectives to support Adena’s mission and strategic direction.
