100 Most Influential People in Healthcare - 2024

Slubowski has served as the head of the Livonia, Michigan-headquartered system since 2019. In fiscal 2024, the 93-hospital organization instituted proactive patient engagement strategies, which led to more than 10,000 follow-up visits and nearly 20,000 more mammograms compared with the year prior. It also saw a 21% decrease in serious safety events. Additionally, the organization is seeing positive patient and staff feedback from its three-person care model launched last year. Internally, Slubowksi’s work to boost staff retention and recruitment has resulted in a significant reduction in voluntary turnover and a strengthening of Trinity’s system-wide mentoring program. Board diversity has also increased. Slubowski supports the U.S. Surgeon General’s advisory on firearm violence and serves on the National Health Care CEO Council on Gun Violence Prevention and Safety.
