Floyd-Polk Healthcare Foundation search for President

May 5, 2022  

BoardWalk Consulting is delighted to partner with Floyd-Polk Healthcare Foundation in its search for President.

On July 14, 2021, North Georgia’s Floyd Medical Center formalized its merger with North Carolina’s Atrium Health, the final step in a three-year process to discern how to ensure the best possible clinical outcomes for the people of Floyd Medical’s footprint of service in northwestern Georgia and northeastern Alabama. A major byproduct of the merger, and the reason for the present search, was the creation of a new community-enhancing asset, the Floyd-Polk Healthcare Foundation, a health legacy foundation with an endowment of approximately $141 million.

Broadly stated, the new Foundation will honor the legacy of service that Floyd Medical and its partners have built in the region through a program of responsive and strategic grantmaking. Developing that program and the infrastructure to support it will fall to the new executive. The President of the Floyd Polk Healthcare Foundation will have an inspiring challenge: Advance the legacy of service long characteristic of Floyd Medical Center and capitalize on the unique opportunity for impact inherent in the philanthropic resource made possible by its sale.
