GUEST: 
Dr. Sammie Mosier, SVP & Chief Nurse Executive at HCA Healthcare

Dr. Mosier started her career at HCA Healthcare in 1996 as a medical-surgical nurse at Frankfort Regional Medical Center in Frankfort, Kentucky and last year she was promoted to the role of Chief Nurse Executive where she oversees approximately 93,000 registered nurses.

Her time as a floor nurse has shaped her leadership style and gives her a unique perspective on the issues and opportunities facing the field.
