A daylong Rural Regions Connect Virtual Conference is scheduled for this Thursday, January 28.
While it was initially planned to be more of just a local event, interest increased, allowing for expanded offerings and presentations.
Cole Przybyla, Tuolumne County’s Director of Innovation and Business Assistance, says, “When we started building this event for the County of Tuolumne, the state recognized it, jumped on, and gave us more resources and access to larger speakers. We really built this event for an entire rural region. It will be really exciting to show off the County of Tuolumne, what we are doing here, and how exciting our community is.”
Raymond L. McCue, MD, MBA, is the new chief medical officer for Bon Secours DePaul Medical Center. He will work with leadership and medical staff to ensure quality of patient care and safety.
