Branson Board of Directors Charity Elmer, JD Charity Elmer, JD Year of Election to the CoxHealth Board: 2015Business or Professional Highlights:CoxHealthEducational Background:Drury University, University of Arkansas - FayettevilleWhy I Serve on the Board:"I am a lifelong resident of the Ozarks. I was born at Cox North Hospital and have never received healthcare anyplace other than CoxHealth. I'm the General Counsel for CoxHealth and consider myself very fortunate as there are not many in-house counsel positions in the Springfield area, especially in healthcare. My position at CoxHealth has given me the opportunity to serve on the Cox Medical Center Branson Board. I was drawn to healthcare because there are very few industries where you can be sure when you go to work every day, you will positively impact the lives of others."
