Chief Nursing Officer Mari Timlin Joins Gritman

An experienced clinical leader is taking the helm of a vital nursing position at Gritman Medical Center.

Mari Timlin was hired this fall as Gritman’s Chief Nursing Officer to lead the hospital’s nurses and nursing teams in providing exceptional care to patients.

Timlin, R.N., MSN, MHA, initially joined Gritman as the hospital’s Interim Chief Nursing Officer this summer, quickly demonstrating her significant knowledge and leadership as a member of the hospital’s clinical staff. She has been extremely effective as a nursing leader throughout her career, including 15 years of health care leadership and eight years leading the nursing staff in one of the nation’s Top 20 rural hospitals.
