10/6/2020
Brooksville, FL – October 6, 2020 – Bayfront Health has appointed Sharon D. Hayes, BSN, RN, MBA as chief executive officer of Bayfront Health Brooksville and Spring Hill, effective October 12, 2020. She joins the hospital after serving as CEO of Bayfront Health St. Petersburg, a 480-bed, Level II Trauma Center.
“I am eager to provide leadership aligning the vision of both hospitals to better serve the needs of Hernando and Pasco counties now and into the future," Hayes said. "There is tremendous opportunity to grow alongside a growing community. Together with physicians, employees and community leaders, we will nurture and develop high-quality healthcare services for the families that live here,” Hayes added. “I am thankful for the opportunity to work with skilled individuals and to support their dedication to patients."
At St. Petersburg, Hayes successfully established trust with physicians through intensive personal interaction, transparency and follow-through on goals. During her time there she also contributed to improving quality, safety and patient experience scores through collaboration with nursing and ancillary department leaders and expanding the footprint of the hospital with a renovated and expanded trauma and emergency department and primary care offices. Hayes previously held the position of CEO at Bayonet Point Regional Medical Center, Palms of Pasadena and Edward White Hospital. Her clinical knowledge is a particular strength in this role, as Hayes has worked as an ER trauma nurse, bedside nurse and chief nursing officer.
“The board is extremely excited to welcome Sharon Hayes to our community,” said Billy Healis, chairman of the board of trustees. “As the new CEO for both hospitals, Sharon brings a wealth of experience to the table. We are quite certain that her leadership ability will bring patient care and service to the next level. It will be refreshing for the team to be led by someone with a nursing background whose primary focus will be providing quality patient experience delivered with compassion to our citizens.”
