Ava Collins
Collins was appointed to lead MetroWest Medical Center in December, though she’s not new to running a hospital and has roughly 25 years of experience in the field.
Collins, the chief operating officer at MetroWest’s sibling hospital, Saint Vincent Hospital in Worcester, was Saint Vincent’s interim CEO until a permanent executive, Carolyn Jackson, was named in 2019. Collins takes over at MetroWest during not only a critical time for hospitals in general because of the coronavirus pandemic, but for the hospital’s Framingham and Natick campuses in particular. MetroWest is planning to remake Natick’s Leonard Morse Hospital into a specialized behavioral healthcare campus. Its more perennial challenge, like a lot of hospitals near Boston’s orbit, remains keeping patients close to home for the care they need.
