We honored Kathy Kuepers—retired CEO, lifelong nurse, and an incredible advocate for rural healthcare with an award for Rural Champion & Partner Award.
We were thrilled to present Kathy with a recognition award on behalf of Tim Size, Executive Director of the Rural Wisconsin Health Cooperative (RWHC), celebrating her recent retirement and over 42 years of dedicated service.
Though Kathy held many leadership roles throughout her career, she began—as so many do—with the heart of a nurse.
“Treat every patient like they are family.” This timeless quote was once our MHLC tagline, and it still guides our care at LHC today.
Thank you, Kathy, for your legacy and for first being an exceptional nurse! You exemplify our Tradition of Trusted Care.
