The Western Regional Trustee Symposium (WRTS) offers quality health care governance programming at an affordable cost. Designed for hospital board members and executive leadership, the program broadens the participants’ awareness of current health care trends that affect them, and how they serve their boards and communities. Best practices of successful health care governance are shared for practical application in the boardroom. WRTS provides excellent networking opportunities for trustees and leaders from hospitals of varying size and scope. This symposium is geared toward rural and Critical Access Hospitals, and aims to challenge conventional thinking with fresh approaches to standard health care governance concerns and business practices.

The ultimate goal of the symposium is to form and maintain health care governance excellence at each hospital in the Western and Midwest United States.

The Western Regional Trustee Symposium is a collaboration of the hospital associations from Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah and Wyoming.
