Board of Trustees

Lawrence Memorial Hospital is led by a nine-member Board of Trustees. Appointed by the mayor and confirmed by the Lawrence City Commission, trustees may serve two four-year terms. They volunteer their time and expertise to improving our community hospital. The LMH Board of Trustees meets at 9 a.m. the third Wednesday of the month in the LMH Auditorium. Meetings are open to the public.
