The CEO of Northside Hospital-Cherokee recently visited Creekview High School to present a program for its healthcare science program students.

Billy Hayes spoke about his role at the hospital and its plans for future growth and improved healthcare in Cherokee County, including the recent groundbreaking for the new hospital and the additional services it will provide.

“Once our new facility is done, we will have 300-500 new jobs — jobs you could one day fill,” Mr. Hayes told the students.

Symantha Solano, daughter of Michael and Dawn Solano, attended the presentation.

“It was great to hear about the new hospital and potential jobs for us in the near future,” she said.

Natalie Cain, daughter of Allan and Missy Cain, for her senior project observed a total hip replacement procedure at the hospital and shadowed the surgeon.

“It was great to hear from Mr. Hayes about all the surgical advances coming to the new facility in 2017,” she said.
