Pleasanton, CALIFORNIA — (April 15, 2025) Misty R. Jones, MBA, MSN, RN, has been named president and CEO of Stanford Health Care Tri-Valley, effective June 9, 2025.

 
Jones brings more than 20 years of experience in clinical and leadership roles in health care, most recently serving as chief operating officer for two academic medical centers at SSM Health, a Catholic, not-for-profit health system based in St. Louis, Missouri.

She succeeds Rick Shumway, who stepped down in January 2025 to assume the role of executive vice president and chief operating officer at Stanford Health Care.

For the past four years, Jones has held senior leadership positions at SSM Health, where she served as regional vice president of operations for St. Louis before assuming the role of chief operating officer for St. Mary’s and St. Louis University Hospitals. In these roles, Jones achieved significant improvements that increased operating room volumes and advanced the system’s value-based care objectives.

Prior to her time at SSM Health, Jones held several roles at MU Health Care in Missouri, with responsibilities that included driving organizational change programs and continuous improvement initiatives. Throughout her career, Jones has amassed a track record of developing complex service lines and optimizing operations to enhance efficiency and maximize patient outcomes

As president and CEO of SHC Tri-Valley, Jones will lead development and implementation of its strategic and operating plans.
