Congratulations to Dr. Neuls, one of our recent Champion Award winners! 🏆

He was nominated for the exceptional care and compassion he provides to patients and families. After a positive experience in the Emergency Department earlier this year, a patient’s family specifically requested him again when their son needed care—reflecting the trust he earned through his patient-centered approach.

As his patient’s family shared, Dr. Neuls demonstrated “a level of care and attention that goes beyond what is expected,” taking time to truly listen, communicate clearly, and ensure concerns were fully understood. They also highlighted his ability to treat patients as individuals, not just cases, which helped build strong trust and comfort during care.

They also noted his consistent follow-through and dedication to doing what is best for his patients—adding that even while on vacation, he still took time to check in and provide updates on their son’s care.

The Champion Award honors WMMC employees, providers, and volunteers who demonstrate courage, collaboration, and compassion every day.

Our President & CEO, Darinda Dick, recently joined the Leading Rural Healthcare podcast to share her perspective on rural healthcare leadership and the future of care at Western Missouri Medical Center.

With a nursing career spanning more than 30 years, Darinda reflects on how her clinical background continues to guide every decision she makes as a CEO. In this episode, she discusses what it takes to lead a high-performing rural hospital—from earning a CMS Five-Star Quality Rating, to building a strong physician enterprise, to expanding access to breast imaging through the WMMC Foundation, which helps support these efforts by raising critical funds.

She also highlights the importance of hospital independence in rural healthcare, the role of the Missouri Hospital Association, and the priorities rural leaders must focus on to ensure long-term sustainability and success.

We are proud of her for sharing her expertise and for representing WMMC and rural healthcare with insight, experience, and purpose—elevating the voice of rural hospitals across our region and beyond.
