Regional Offices
While QHR has hospitals nationwide, we manage them on a regional level. QHR’s national scope with regional exposure helps us deliver services in a smaller, more personal and focused way.
Regional Vice Presidents serve as trusted advisors to hospital boards and administrations and support the hospital leadership team. They understand local market dynamics that make each hospital unique because they have personally run hospitals as CEOs or CFOs prior to becoming RVPs. Through this approach, clients enjoy the benefits of a large company and the touch of personal service.
