I am appreciative and honored to be given this opportunity, said Steely. Its an exciting time for our communities and our organization. My goal is to continue to build on the synergy and strategy that has allowed us to extend our mission by growing with and serving those around us.
Steely, who is a Dove Leadership Award and Heart of Nursing Award recipient, holds a Master of Science in Health Systems Leadership from the University of West Georgia. Outside of her profession, she enjoys spending time with her husband, Lynn, and their children, Bree and Jake.
