Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

Lifepoint Health has an opportunity for a Chief Executive Officer. The CEO will have oversight of Trios Health in Kennewick, Washington. 

Trios Health, formerly Kennewick General Hospital, is a multi-faceted healthcare system located in southeastern Washington, primarily serving the Tri-Cities—Kennewick, Pasco, and Richland—and surrounding communities. What began as a small hometown hospital founded by a dedicated legion of Kennewick residents over 70 years ago has grown with the community that built it.

Today, Trios Health is anchored by its new Trios Southridge Hospital and remains deeply connected to its community roots, but with the ability to offer a lifetime of care across a broad spectrum of healthcare specialties and services. In fact, we've built what has become one of Eastern Washington's largest multi-specialty medical groups. And we've been careful to weave a strong thread of human compassion through the fabric of our culture. The result is an array of complementary inpatient and outpatient services—provided by passionate, empathetic people—that combine to provide holistic medical care for patients facing a variety of health challenges.
