Matt Schaefer, president and CEO of what is now officially Dolly Parton Children's Hospital in East Tennessee, sat down with Chief Healthcare Executive on Monday, March 30, to speak about Parton's contribution to the institution.
Schaefer described meeting the 80-year-old country legend as a "surreal moment," praising her "incredibly disarming personality" and the genuine passion she brought to the conversation. "It was truly humbling, and to hear her, in her own words, talk about the importance of this to her, to her community, to this organization, and to children, was super affirming," he said.
The donation is expected to fund an expanded roster of doctors, new programs and technology, and increased fundraising efforts. Schaefer also spoke about the impact Parton's name and legacy brings to the table. "To have the halo effect of everything she stood for in her life, including her love for children in particular, it just is fantastic for the future of our mission," he said.
