Cynthia Moore-Hardy, the longtime president of UH Lake Health, is retiring at the end of the month.
University Hospitals, which about a year ago absorbed the Lake Health system, announced in a news release on Thursday morning, Feb. 17, that Moore-Hardy will retire effective March 31. She will “continue to serve in a consulting capacity to further assist in the integration process,” according to the release.
UH said it will “immediately commence the process to identify her successor.”
Moore-Hardy, 64, was president and CEO of Lake Health for nearly 25 years prior to the integration into UH. She “was instrumental in helping to grow and transform Lake Health into a fully integrated healthcare system with 11 facilities, including three acute care hospitals,” UH said in the release.
“It’s hard to put into words all that Cynthia has done for UH Lake Health and the Lake County community as a whole,” said Dr. Cliff A. Megerian, CEO of UH, in a statement. He said she took the lead “in helping to grow and transform Lake Health into a fully integrated system, and her commitment to the health and well-being of the Lake County community will continue to have a profound impact going forward.”
UH noted in the release that during her tenure, Moore-Hardy “oversaw major capital investment including the opening of TriPoint Medical Center and Beachwood Medical Center, the Lake Continuing Care Center, as well as several outpatient health centers that spanned three counties.”
