A nursing executive with two decades worth of experience, Micah Johnson, MSN, MHA, RN, NE-BC, recently joined Baptist Health Medical Center-Conway as chief nursing officer.
Johnson’s appointment as CNO isn’t his first experience with Baptist Health. In 2003, he graduated from the Baptist Health School of Nursing, now Baptist Health College Little Rock. Johnson later received an RN-BSN from Arkansas Tech University, and a Master of Science in Nursing from Texas A&M University in Texarkana.
“Micah joins our team with many years of incredible experience in nursing and leadership,” said April Bennett, president of Baptist Health Medical Center-Conway. “We are extremely grateful to have him join our team, and we know he will be a great addition to the amazing culture we have at Baptist Health Medical Center-Conway.”
Johnson most recently served as vice president and chief nursing officer at CHRISTUS Santa Rosa Hospital in San Marcos, Texas. Before that, he served as facility administrator and chief nursing officer for CHRISTUS St. Michael Hospital in Atlanta, Texas, and as intensive care unit nurse manager for CHRISTUS St. Michael Health System.
Johnson permanently takes the position previously held by Bennett, who was promoted to president of Baptist Health Medical Center-Conway in November.
