Hollywood, Fla.-based Memorial Healthcare System has tapped an interim CEO following the board of commissioners' vote to end K. Scott Wester's contract and his subsequent resignation. Mr. Wester had been president and CEO since 2022.
Shane Strum, president and CEO of Fort Lauderdale, Fla.-based Broward Health will take on the interim role in addition to his current one, according to a Sept. 23 LinkedIn post from Broward Health.
"To ensure that health care across Broward County reaches new heights through collaboration and innovation, I’ve agreed to accept the interim role at Memorial during this time of transition while remaining the President and CEO of Broward Health," Mr. Strum said in the post. "My primary objective is to make certain both systems remain strong and attuned to their goals of moving health forward."
