Meet our Board of Directors

 Pam Davis

Growing up in West Chicago, as one of three daughters to a mother and father who were both physicians, Pam has always loved healthcare.  Pam earned a M.H.A. Hospital and Health Services and a B.A. in economics and social studies from the University of Iowa.

For 29 years, Pam served as CEO of Edward Hospital and Health Services and Edward-Elmhurst Health. She led a period of rapid expansion and innovation which saw the first medically-based county fitness centers: the first all-private inpatient rooms in Illinois; first-of-its-kind Heart Hospital; the launch of Access DuPage for the working poor; and the founding of the 1000 member Illinois Health Partners, which she co-chaired.  Pam served in many volunteer leadership roles.

Pam transformed Edward Hospital from a small community hospital into a major regional medical center, Edward-Elmhurst health.  Under Pam’s direction, Edward and Elmhurst hospitals have supported YH4L since 2006, sponsoring the high schools in their area for screenings.

Pam enjoys sending time with her 3 children and 4 grandchildren.
