“Melody Trimble embodies the values and characteristics of a servant leader. Her impact on our market continues to be felt and she was largely known for being able to transform the culture into a more “caring” organization. Although our slogan was “bringing loving care to healthcare”, she led by example and helped break down historical silos and opened up communication channels across the facility. Never did our team members feel like Melody asked them to do things that she would not do herself. She took so much pride in the work she did, helping out frontline staff in the ED when volumes were through the roof, encouraging team members through difficult situations, or walking out into the various departments asking how she can help them be successful. As a market CEO with large responsibilities, she still made time to know personal details about many of the team members. She seeked to serve first, and in return, she was able to improve our operational footprint because she had a tremendous support from the staff. Under her leadership, JCMC became the first comprehensive stroke center in our region, driving outcomes from rates below national average to top decile performance in several indicators. We introduced Transcather Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) to provide an option for patients who were otherwise too sick for surgical valve replacement. Melody transformed our level 1 trauma program with several programmatic changes and guided our hospitals through very successful surveys for disease-specific certification and TJC accreditation. All this accomplished, while maintaining other broad hospital services including the region’s only children’s hospital (Niswonger), regional psychiatric hospital (Woodridge), and a Truven Top 100 community hospital (Franklin Woods). Her leadership is an asset to any organization that seeks results and cultural transformation.”
