Retiring state Rep. Mike Unes (R-East Peoria) is UnityPoint's newest executive.
The five-term Republican was picked to lead the Methodist-Proctor Foundation as a vice president. He starts Jan. 1.
“Mike is a community-minded leader with a proven track record in public service and fundraising," said UnityPoint Central Illinois President and CEO Dr. Keith Knepp in a prepared statement. "It’s clear he understands our mission and how important our exceptional healthcare services are to our community. I’m confident he’s the right person to lead our Foundation during this time of change in health care.”
Unes announced last week he wouldn't seek another term in 2020.
