Across the nation, hospitals are reimagining Women’s and Children’s Services in response to rising maternal mortality, workforce shortages, and evolving patient expectations for personalized care. Two health systems—one on the West Coast and another in the southeast United States—faced similar challenges of operational inefficiency, fragmented communication, and staff disengagement. Rather than implementing incremental fixes, both organizations turned to Kirby Bates Associates for expert interim leadership to drive true transformation.
With the guidance of a seasoned interim executive, each organization restructured its Women’s and Children’s Service Line into a cohesive, high-performing product line—anchored in person-centered care, operational discipline, and measurable results. This partnership exemplifies how the right interim leader can accelerate change, unify teams, and translate strategy into sustained excellence.
