Herald-Star: Grimshaw looks back at tenure

Our thanks to the Herald-Star for this feature story on outgoing Trinity Health System president, Matt Grimshaw. There are many successes to celebrate!

Here’s an excerpt from the article, along with a link to the full piece by Linda Harris:

STEUBENVILLE — When he drives away from the Upper Ohio Valley two months from now, outgoing Trinity Health System President Matt Grimshaw says it will be with a sense of accomplishment.

Grimshaw, 50, has accepted a position as market president for CHI St. Joseph Health in Kentucky. CHI St. Joseph Health and Trinity are part of the South Region of CommonSpirit Health, which was created by the alignment of Catholic Health Initiatives and Dignity Health in 2019.

He will leave Trinity in mid-December after seven years at the helm.

“There are four things that really will stick with me as what we focused on, that were keys to setting Trinity up for long-term success,” Grimshaw said. “Of course, the big, obvious one is really this project here, the new tower, and consolidating our services on one campus. That was the dream from 1996, and to finally deliver on a long-term hospital solution for Steubenville … that’s a big deal, and that was my No. 1 task.

“The second was really looking at our clinical services and re-strengthening those programs: We recruited five cardiologists to join our cardiovascular program in the last five years and we’ve rapidly expanded our cardiovascular structural heart program.”
