St. John’s Health: A Collaborative Partnership Brings True IT Modernization

St. John’s Health (SJH) is a small community hospital in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, serving approximately 20,000 residents and welcoming 3 million visitors annually. With 49 acute care beds, 52 long-term care beds, inpatient rehab, transitional care units, and 13 outpatient clinics, SJH faces unique challenges in delivering high-quality healthcare in a remote, high-traffic region.

The IT team, led by Tyler Wertenbruch (Director of IT) and Emily Graham (Informatics Supervisor, RN), works closely with Connection, a long-term technology partner, to address evolving clinical needs, security threats, and operational efficiency.

Their collaborative approach bridges clinical and technical expertise, ensuring technology solutions align with patient care priorities.
