West Virginia Executive magazine is proud to announce the West Virginia Executive Health Care Hall of Fame, a program that will honor those who are currently living in and working in West Virginia and have directly contributed to or are currently contributing to the health and well-being of West Virginians in a way that goes above and beyond the norm. WVE is looking for nominees who started/created or directly contributed to the success of projects, initiatives, programs and other activities to help make West Virginians healthier and to help make health care more available and affordable. WVE wants to honor those who are making a difference not just by practicing medicine and patient care but by going above and beyond, recognizing weaknesses in health care in West Virginia and finding or creating solutions. These might be hospital administrators, doctors, nurses, educators, researchers, scientists, volunteers, entrepreneurs, inventors, or small business owners.

While there is no age cut-off for West Virginia Health Care Hall of Fame honorees, nominees must meet the following criteria:

• Must have been in their current position for at least the last two years;
• Must have lived in West Virginia for at least the last two years;
• Must have made a significant contribution to the state’s health care industry in West Virginia; and
• Must have a passion for making the Mountain State a better, healthier, and happier place to live.

Nominations are accepted year-round. Inductees will be featured in the annual Winter/February Health Care issue of West Virginia Executive magazine and recognized at a special awards reception.

The deadline for nominations for the Class of 2025 is November 1, 2024.

*Those who are selected will receive a congratulatory phone call from the publisher or editor in chief. If you are nominated and do not receive a congratulatory phone call, you have not been selected as a member of the Health Care Hall of Fame.
