Paul D. Ketron, director, RMH Plant Operations, has been awarded a fellowship in the American College of Healthcare Executives (ACHE).

To earn fellow status, candidates must meet academic and experiential criteria and demonstrate professional and community involvement. Fellows must display commitment to continued professional development and undergo re-certification every three years.

Ketron was recognized in a ceremony March 9 at the ACHE Congress on Healthcare Leadership in Chicago.

Ketron holds a master of science degree in health services administration from the University of St. Francis in Illinois. He earned a master of divinity degree from Temple Baptist Theological Seminary in Chattanooga, Tenn., and a bachelor of arts from Tennessee Temple University. He has been at RMH since 2005.

ACHE is a professional society for healthcare leaders, with more than 30,000 members nationwide. Of that number, only 7,500 hold the distinction of fellowship.
