Dawn Trompeter, president for OSF HealthCare Saint Elizabeth Medical Center and OSF HealthCare Saint Paul Medical Center, and AJ Querciagrossa, CEO of the Western Region of OSF HealthCare, provided updates on progress made in Peru and the surrounding areas, as well as what service delivery will look like in the future.
