After six years of dedicated service, Jane Curran-Meuli will retire as President of SSM Health Monroe Hospital & Clinics and St. Mary’s Hospital – Janesville at the end of 2025.

From leading us through the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic to fostering unity across both hospitals, Jane has been a steady, visionary presence. Her unwavering commitment to our Mission and belief in the power of compassionate care have left a lasting imprint on our culture.

“I have experienced our team’s dedication to ensuring every aspect of our patients’ care is exceptional—from the moment they’re greeted at the front door, to their experience in the clinic, and even in the ICU,” Jane shared. “Through every challenge, our staff have never forgotten that we are here to serve our communities. There is something uniquely special about SSM Health.”

We are deeply grateful for Jane’s leadership and her steadfast dedication to our patients, teams, and communities. Please join us in celebrating her remarkable career and wishing her all the best in her well-earned retirement!
