Flagstaff Business News

The Donor Network for Arizona (DNA) recently awarded Flagstaff Medical Center’s Trauma Services Director Bill Ashland, R.N., the Outstanding Hospital Leader award. Ashland received the award for his role in promoting and facilitating organ and tissue donations at Flagstaff Medical Center (FMC).

Ashland was instrumental in establishing protocols to ensure FMC met all the regulations surrounding the organ donation process, as well as providing education opportunities for hospital staff who are key to the organ donation process.

Ashland has more than 25 years of trauma/nursing experience. Since joining FMC in 1998, Ashland worked as a certified flight nurse with Guardian Air, a division of Northern Arizona Healthcare, and manager of FMC’s Trauma Services before being named director of Trauma Services in 2010.
