A message from COO Jeffery “JR” Robert
Dear Swedish,
It is my pleasure to share with you that Chris Beaudoin has been named permanent chief operating officer (COO) of Swedish Issaquah. In this role, he will continue to deliver operational leadership, management, and direction to the Swedish Issaquah campus.
Before assuming the interim role of COO at Issaquah, Chris served as chief transition officer at Providence St. Joseph Health (PSJH), where he lead the integration planning and implementation efforts for the partnership between Providence and St. Joseph Health. Chris has been with Providence for more than 10 years, serving in various leadership roles including vice president of operations for Providence Senior and Community Services where he had operational oversight of the Home Health, Hospice, and Home Infusion operations in Washington State. Chris holds a master’s degree in Business Administration from Seattle University and a bachelor’s degree in Biology from Western Washington University.
Chris is very excited to support Swedish Issaquah and collaborate with senior leadership, core leaders, and caregivers to continue the Swedish Issaquah legacy of delivering outstanding care to the East King County community.
Please join me in congratulating Chris.
JR
