Pella Regional Health Center has named Mark Howard to the role of Manager of Nutrition Services. He is now responsible for the daily and ongoing functioning of the Nutrition Services department, directing its operations, finances, and employees.

Howard was most recently employed at Newton Health Care Center as Food and Nutrition Manager. Prior to that role, he has had extensive leadership experience in the healthcare and collegiate food service industries.

Howard received his Bachelor of Science degree from Truman State University in Kirksville, Missouri. Outside of work, he enjoys coaching soccer at Pella Community High School as its longtime girls head coach, and spending time with his wife, Cathy, and three children, Brett, Molly and Ellie.

“I’m looking forward to the new challenge of guiding the Nutrition Services Department at Pella Regional Health Center into the future,” said Howard.

The Pella Community School District invites veterans and their families, as well as the rest of the community, to honor those who have served in the military on Veterans Day.
