CHA Board Chair Siri Nelson Named El Dorado County Woman of the Year

What’s happening: On March 31, California State Assemblymember Joe Patterson recognized Marshall Medical Center CEO Siri Nelson, who also serves as CHA’s board chair, as the 5th Assembly District’s El Dorado County Woman of the Year. 

What else to know: In the press release, Patterson commended Nelson’s commitment to ensuring residents have quality health care. “Under her leadership, we have seen expanded innovative healthcare services in our community, in addition to numerous new career opportunities for residents,” he said. 

After joining Placerville-based Marshall in July of 2019, Nelson directed the medical center through the COVID-19 pandemic in such a way that prompted the state to request that Marshall serve as a regional surge facility. Nelson has also directed the development of new services, partnerships, and programs, and has expanded Marshall’s footprint of care to add vitally needed services in El Dorado Hills.
