BUCKHANNON, W.Va. — Misti D Elmore, RN, BSN, Director of Emergency and Outpatient Services at St. Joseph’s Hospital, recently completed the West Virginia Hospital Association (WVHA) Leadership Academy. The mission of the academy is to prepare employees to effectively lead transformation in their organizations by broadening their knowledge of the complexities of healthcare in West Virginia and beyond.

The WVHA Leadership Academy is a nine-month program that gives participants the opportunity to learn from experienced professionals and participate in conferences and at hospital site visits across the state.
