A Conversation with Chris Woleske, President & CEO of Bellin Health
In a time of crisis, such as we have experienced in this pandemic, often what is needed is a sense of predictability, a reinforcement that “we can do this”. This conversation with Jason Wolf and Chris Woleske, President & CEO of Bellin Health, explores how serving as a “Chief Predictability Officer” can support patients and families and inspire our healthcare teams. Chris Woleske shares how her organization became a positive outlier by listening and engaging staff and making bold choices to not disrupt care during the COVD-19 crisis.

At the heart of this discussion is how Bellin Health designed strategies with clear compassion for the patient and family experience, a commitment to the community it serves and a focus on providing “psychological PPE” for those delivering care.
