Ned Hill

DANVILLE — Ned Hill has been named president of OSF HealthCare Sacred Heart Medical Center here. He succeeds Brad Solberg, who held that role on an interim basis while serving as president of OSF HealthCare Saint James-John W. Albrecht Medical Center in Pontiac.

Hill will begin to transition to his new role on Aug. 2.

“It is my experience that to be a truly great organization and to offer excellence in care, leaders must spend time and attention developing and supporting a culture of caring and empathy. It is evident that the leaders at OSF Sacred Heart have done just that,” Hill said. “I feel blessed to be joining this team and look forward to the future.”

Most recently, Hill served as chief executive officer at Mesa View Regional Hospital in Mesquite, Nevada.
