Brownsworth named CEO of Weems Memorial Hospital

Franklin County has hired a new CEO for Weems Memorial Hospital.

On Tuesday the board accepted the recommendation of the hospital advisory board and voted unanimously to hire 58 year old Ray Brownsworth for the job.

Mister Brownsworth was one of 34 people who applied for the job.

He comes to Franklin county from Sigourney, Iowa where he served as CEO of the Keokuk County Health center since 2007.

Mister Brownsworth will fill the spot left vacant by Davie Lloyd who left the hospital in late 2011.

Since that time the position was filled by interim CEO Cindy Drapel.

Hospital Advisory board chairperson Tammy Hardy said it was an arduous process, but she believes the board made a good selection in Mister Brownsworth.

The new CEO will start work on October the 8^th.
