Bradford Health Services Appoints New CEO
Bradford Health Services, an operator of more than 25 addiction treatment centers across the South, announced recently that its board of directors has named health industry veteran Lisa Evans as the organization’s new CEO.
Most recently, Evans served as corporate chief operating officer for Perimeter Healthcare, a role in which she oversaw hospitals and facilities in 6 states. During her 5-year stint with Perimeter, the company’s revenue increased by nearly 20%. During her career, Evans has also held executive titles with UHS, Strategic Behavioral Health, and Hospital Corporation of America.
“I am extremely pleased to have Lisa as a partner to drive Bradford’s growth and development strategies,” Jon O’Shaughnessy, Bradford Health Services board chair said in a news release. “I am confident her focus on the patient experience will serve to differentiate Bradford’s offerings from those of our competitors.”
Evans’ work in healthcare has been recognized with the Arkansas Governor’s Award, and she also holds the distinction of being the first behavioral health CEO named to the Arkansas Hospital Association’s board of directors.
In taking on the CEO position with Bradford, Evans said the organization will continue to focus on practicing client-focused treatment while developing new service delivery options to expand access for those struggling to access care.
