The Community Health Center of Southeast Kansas (CHC/SEK) is pleased to announce that Holley Forrest has been named Vice President of Operations.
Forrest brings 16 years of experience with CHC/SEK to her new role. Over the past fourteen years, she has held the position of Director of Operations, where she has successfully led the opening of all clinic locations, improved processes, and provided support to practice managers and staff.
As Vice President of Operations, Forrest will oversee clinic operations across the organization. Her responsibilities will include providing leadership, optimizing workflows, and ensuring that day-to-day operations align with the organization’s mission and values.
“I’m honored to step into this new role,” said Forrest. “What excites me most is the opportunity to support our teams and help create systems that make it easier for everyone to do the incredible work they do every day. I’m passionate about making sure operations run smoothly—not just for efficiency’s sake, but so that our staff can focus on what matters most: our patients.”
“I met Holley five years ago when I started at CHC/SEK. After a few months of working here, I quickly understood who I needed to ask to get something done or get an answer. That person was Holley,” said Lori Rexwinkle, CHC/SEK Chief Operations Officer. “She truly understands the mission of CHC/SEK and has an excellent work ethic. I am honored to work with her and can’t wait to see what accomplishments take place in the future.”
Outside of work, Forrest enjoys spending time with her family, traveling, and attending concerts.
