New CEO to Keynote Chamber Lunch

rot1Stephen Lunn – Porter Regional Hospital’s new CEO – will be providing the keynote presentation during the Duneland Chamber of Commerce’s monthly luncheon on Wednesday, April 23. The Hilton Garden Inn (located at 501 N. Gateway Blvd. in Chesterton, Indiana) will host the event, which will be held from 11:30 am – 1:00 pm. Pre-registration is required.

Lunn has more than 10 years of hospital leadership experience, most recently as CEO of Heartland Regional Medical Center in Marion, Illinois. During his tenure, Lunn led his team to position Heartland Regional as the provider of choice in Marion County and make improvements in patient care by reaching its highest-ever quality scores. The hospital also recruited a record number of new physicians, acquired five physician practices and was recognized for increased physician and employee satisfaction. Lunn’s achievements earned him the 2012 CEO Excellence in Leadership Award from Community Health Systems.

“We’re so pleased to welcome Mr. Lunn as our keynote presenter in April,” said Maura Durham, President of the Duneland Chamber of Commerce. “The current and future states of healthcare are major concerns for our membership – and for the community as a whole. We’re fortunate that Porter’s new CEO is able to give us some time to share his knowledge of the industry.”

This event is open to the public. Ticket prices are $12-$14 for Chamber members, and $16 for community members.
