LUVERNE, Minn. - Becker's Hospital Review has named Sanford Luverne and Rock Rapids' Tammy Loosbrock to the 2024 edition of its "160 community hospital CEOs to know."

This list honors community hospital chief executive officers dedicated to delivering high-quality, affordable care within their communities. The Becker's Hospital Review editorial team accepted nominations for this list and curated it to highlight the exceptional work of chief executive officers from community hospitals across the nation.

Loosbrock serves as the chief executive officer at Sanford Luverne and Sanford Rock Rapids, serving residents and locals from the surrounding rural areas including clinics in Adrian, MN, and Edgerton, MN. She remains actively involved by personally driving for ambulance runs when needed and takes on tasks such as organizing materials management storage to optimize space and reducing costs. Her approach to leadership allows her to stay connected to the challenges and needs of both patients and staff.

In addition to the locations she serves, Loosbrock is deeply involved in community initiatives. She supports her employees and addresses community needs as an active local daycare board member and volunteers at local schools by mentoring students and promotes healthcare careers. She is also involved in the Luverne Rotary Club and Rock County Food Shelf board.

"I am very honored to be recognized by Becker's as a community CEOs to know, however, this achievement is a testament of our dedicated staff at Luverne and Rock Rapids," said Loosbrock. "Without their commitment to our patients and to providing quality services, recognitions like this wouldn't be possible."
