WARSAW — Lori Augustus has been named Bowen Health executive director southeast, with responsibility for operations within Huntington and Wabash, as well as community-based operations in 12 additional counties.

Beginning her career as a mental health counselor, Augustus expanded her skills, becoming versed at managing health care practices in northern Indiana.

“Lori comes to us with a wealth of executive-level experience with a focus in medical practice operations,” said Shannon Hannon, Bowen Health chief operating officer. “Her most recent role as the VP of physician services at a large northern Indiana health system physicians’ group included responsibility for day-to-day operations, strategic planning and quality initiatives for practices in multiple counties. That makes her uniquely qualified for the executive director role, and we are privileged to welcome her to Bowen Heath.”

“I wanted to be a part of what is happening within Bowen Health,” said Augustus. “Because of the value placed on every person who enters the doors, lives are being changed and enhanced. To be a part of a team dedicated to helping and serving others is exciting, and I am grateful for the opportunity.”

“Lori joins us at a time of significant growth, and we are so pleased to have her perspective and leadership as we move forward,” said Dr. Rob Ryan, Bowen Health president and chief executive officer. “For more than 60 years, Bowen Health has been a trusted mental health care provider offering services to anyone, regardless of their ability to pay. With the addition of primary care services we are truly making a difference in the well-being of our patients and our communities.”
