Congratulations ACHE Award Winners!

ACHE of Massachusetts – an independent chapter of the American College of Healthcare Executives – presented two awards at MHA’s Annual Meeting.

This year the Early Careerist Healthcare Executive Award was presented to Zachary Pepper-Cunningham – the senior marketing enterprise associate for Athenahealth.

The Senior-Level Healthcare Executive Regent’s Award was presented to Maureen Bisognano, president emerita and senior fellow at the Institute for Healthcare Improvement. Bisognano previously served as IHI’s president for five years and EVP and COO for 15 years.

Karen Moore, R.N., the senior vice president for operations and chief nursing officer at Lawrence General Hospital, presented the awards. In her remarks about Bisognano, Moore said, “I am especially pleased this year to be recognizing a nurse.  As we envision the role of nursing in the future and clarify nursing value in the present I want to call attention and recognize the tremendous accomplishments of nursing leaders, especially in Massachusetts, who have been working effectively for years to support systems improvements and consistent humanity at the sharp end of care.”
