Directors
A hospital is a corporation whose overall direction and strategy are governed by a board of directors. Non-profit hospital directors are influential, high-profile members of the healthcare or local community. Educationally affiliated hospitals have the university’s board of trustees doubling as its overseers, while religiously founded hospitals are usually led by the congregation’s leaders.
Executives
Executives ensure that the hospital’s daily operations are fulfilled completely, in all levels and departments. Commanding all divisions is the chief operating officer, who works with the chief medical officer, chief nursing officer, chief information officer, chief financial officer, and so forth, as the hospital’s core management team.

Department administrators
Hospital administrators oversee processes, manage staff, regulate supply and purchasing needs, and uphold workflow and rules within their department. Patient care departments are extensive and include emergency, labor and delivery, and orthopedics, while non-patient departments include admissions, billing, and food services.
Patient care managers
Supervising physicians, nurse managers, and directors of rehabilitation services handle employees that render hands-on patient care. These officers maintain staff schedules and functions, mitigate issues, and ensure that their subordinates are giving their patients the best care possible.

Service providers
The bulk of hospital staff is composed of service providers, from physical therapists and nurses, to laundry workers and line cooks. The degree and caliber of a hospital’s health care depends heavily on these individuals’ ability to execute their duties at maximum capacity and efficacy.
