AMOREM Names New Chief Executive Officer
On Monday evening, the AMOREM Board of Directors named April Moore as the organization’s new chief executive officer.
Moore began her career in hospice in 2004 as a volunteer coordinator with Caldwell Hospice and Palliative Care, which integrated with Burke Hospice and Palliative Care in 2021 to form AMOREM. It was during this time as a volunteer coordinator that she said the volunteers and her peers inspired her and opened her eyes to the true philosophy of hospice care.
During her 20 years with the organization, Moore has held multiple roles and has been privileged to work closely in each of AMOREM’s service areas. Her mentor, and former CEO of AMOREM, Cathy Swanson, worked closely with Moore throughout her tenure at the organization. Like Swanson, Moore has invested most of her professional career with AMOREM.
Formerly, Moore served on AMOREM’s senior leadership team as the chief operating officer where she oversaw facilities, business operations and AMOREM’s palliative medicine program. She has had much experience in leading large and diverse teams with a mission-driven approach.
