Dedication to David Hall Almost 25 years ago, the medical center established its first Center of Excellence, The Heart Lung Vascular Institute (HLVI). Mr. David Hall was one of its key developers and served as the first Vice President of the Heart Lung Vascular Institute. Prior to his recent retirement, he served the medical center, either directly or through its partners, for over 30 years. During his service he did not stop with the Heart Lung Vascular Institute. He was key in the development of multiple Centers of Excellence. Mr. Hall was instrumental in incorporating the science of improvement methodologies into hospital operations and he was fundamental in the development of many community and national partnerships which facilitate the provisions of care throughout the care continuum. At the time of his retirement, Mr. Hall was serving as the medical center’s Executive Vice President.
The decades of work performed by Mr. Hall has positively impacted this community in innumerable ways. Many of these effects will live on indefinitely. One of the key developers of the Center of Excellence, Hall also served as the first Vice President of the Heart Lung Vascular Institute.
We are honored to dedicate this annual report to Mr. David Hall, thanking him for his outstanding service to the medical center, team members, patients and the people of this region.
