ATLANTA – Emory Healthcare is announcing that Jen Schuck has been named chief executive officer (CEO) of Emory Decatur Hospital, Emory Hillandale Hospital and Emory Long-Term Acute Care, effective immediately. Schuck currently serves as interim CEO of the three facilities.
“Jen has been a phenomenal leader and member of the executive team at Emory Decatur Hospital since 2018,” says Bryce Gartland, MD, Emory Healthcare Hospital Group President. “She is a strategic thinker, focused operator and compassionate leader. I am excited to see Jen take this next step in her career at Emory Healthcare, as we welcome her permanently to the CEO role.”
