President
Jim introduced Jameson CEO, Tom White, who spoke on the
Jameson Health System’s annual report entitled “Passing
the Leadership Baton”. He spoke of Chris Mitsos's
accomplishments as chairman of the board for 18 years.
The new chairman is our own Lee Silverman. White
reviewed Jameson’s mission statement, the continuum of
care program, and JHS’s benefits to the community which
was $10.2 million in 2008. He also discussed the
Jameson Health Care Foundation, the cancer program, and
the pulmonary disease program. The system has added new
medical/dental staff to the list of personnel. White
stressed that it is vitally important that public and
private enterprise work together to insure the future of
the hospital in our community. White then donated $10
to the club because club members applauded his
presentation. Lee Silverman matched White’s donation.
