Galen Wiser Receives Trustee of the Year Award

December 1, 2017 – Congratulations to Galen Wiser, our current Board Member and former President of State Nebraska Bank & Trust, who received the Trustee of the Year Award from the Nebraska Hospital Association (NHA).

This past October, the NHA celebrated its 90th anniversary and recognized Wiser’s accomplishments within Nebraska hospitals at its annual banquet.  Wiser serves on the Board of Trustees for Providence Medical Center in Wayne, where he has provided governance excellence and been a tireless advocate for the hospital and our community for many years.  He is completing his seventh year as a trustee for PMC and has served in many capacities during his tenure, including board chair in 2015.

Wiser recently served as campaign chairman for Providence Medical Center’s “Quality Care, Close to Home” capital campaign.  His leadership helped to successfully complete a $2.5 million fundraiser for the benefit of the hospital’s renovation/expansion project. He is also completing his first two-year term on the NHA board of directors and has been re-nominated for a second term.  In addition to his service to NHA, he has previously served on the American Hospital Association Committee on Governance.

We continue to be proud of Galen Wiser’s contributions to our community.  Congratulations on this incredible honor!
