Miller tapped as CEO

TORRINGTON – Long-time Banner Health employee and acting Community Hospital CEO Zach Miller has been named to the post he’s filled on a full-time basis, the health care company announced this week.

Miller, who joined Community Hospital in 2015, has been filling the position since Shelby Olind – who’d led the staff at both Community Hospital in Torrington and Platte County Memorial Hospital in Wheatland – left earlier this year, according to a release from Sara Quale with Banner Health.

Prior to Community Hospital, Miller served as nursing director at Banner Del E Webb Medical Center in Sun City West, Ariz. Before joining Banner, he served in both patient care and leadership positions for hospitals in Arizona and Utah.

Miller received his bachelor’s degree in nursing from Weber State University in Ogden, Utah, and a master’s degree in health administration from the University of Phoenix. In addition to his duties at Community Hospital, Miller serves on the Goshen County School District No. 1 Board of Trustees, the Perkins Advisory Committee at Eastern Wyoming College in Torrington and works with Goshen County Economic Development.

He also owns AJ’s Soda Shop, a Torrington-based small business, with his wife, Jaclyn.

In the release, Miller said he was pleased there would be new chief executives at both Community Hospital and Platte County Memorial. Olind had served in the top spot for both facilities, the release said.

“Our hospitals share many resources to increase efficiency and improve operations,” Miller said. “We believe having a top leader working and living in the community is essential.”
