Weston County Health Services staff shake-up: HR director introduced; operations leader to depart; interim succession planned
Summary
Board introduced Dr. Rebecca Mok as new HR director; operations manager Shane announced he will accept a VP role elsewhere effective Oct. 10; the hospital plans interim succession, including provisional administrator Kim stepping into an interim role and a temporary contract with Tish for support.
Weston County Health Services introduced a new HR director and outlined short-term succession plans after an operations manager accepted a new position.
Dr. Rebecca Mok was introduced to the board as the hospital’s new HR director. Mok described relocating from Oregon and said she is finalizing local arrangements; the board welcomed her.
In staffing changes, a longtime operations leader, Shane, told the board he accepted an offer to be vice president of operations with a multi-facility company and will begin that role Oct. 10. Board members and staff praised Shane’s contributions and said he offered to be available by phone during the transition.
To cover leadership changes, staff described internal succession steps: Kim (last name not given) has completed provisional administrator work and accrued the hours required to sit for the nursing-home administrator test; she will serve in an interim administrator role while final licensing and testing are completed. The board said the interim plan reflects prior succession planning.
Staff also said Tish (Trish) will be available under contract to provide ongoing support while family health issues limit her onsite availability. Board and staff characterized these arrangements as temporary measures while the hospital finalizes longer-term staffing decisions.
No formal personnel votes were recorded in the supplied transcript; the board discussed continuity planning and thanked departing staff.
