March 22, 2022 – The South Broward Hospital District Board of Commissioners has completed the first round of interviews for the new President and CEO who will succeed Aurelio M.

The Board will be inviting four of these candidates for an in-person interview in the coming weeks, and these interview notices will be publicly posted on mhs.net.
The candidates are:
- Jonathan W. Curtright, Chief Executive Officer, University of Missouri Health Care
- William Jackson, Jr., MD, President, Chief Executive Officer, Erlanger Health System
- Edward Jimenez, Chief Executive Officer, University of Florida Health
- Scott Wester, President, Chief Executive Officer, Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center
Once all in-person interviews and any additional follow up with these candidates are completed the Board of Commissioners will meet and make a decision regarding the selection of the next President and CEO with an announcement to follow.
