Remarkable Always

Hill Country Memorial Hospital

Story

For Emily Padula, work is an act of service to God. This inspires her as she leads the award-winning Hill Country Memorial Hospital towards being “remarkable always.”

As Chief Strategy Officer, Emily ensures that patients receive excellent care, employees are engaged in their work, and the broader community is well-served amidst a constantly changing healthcare environment. Her journey to a biblical understanding of work is expressed in the daily operations of the rural hospital.
