Leadership

At Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, every nurse is a leader. Whatever your role, you can create solutions to help children and families on your unit and across the hospital.

Nurses are a vital part of all our hospital committees, shared governance and leadership councils. They are the drivers who create and implement solutions to make an impact on the care of our patients and their families.

Leadership Team

As leaders, we’re committed to delivering the highest level of care and fostering a positive work environment.
