Ladd Added to Upland Hills Board of Directors

Dave Ladd has been added to the Upland Hills Health Board of Directors roster. Ladd’s addition was approved on January 31.

Ladd, a lifelong Dodgeville resident, is also founder and CEO of Walnut Hollow Woodcrafts. He will bring the values and ideas he’s gained over the last 34 years of his business experience to the hospital’s Board of Directors. Three of Ladd’s four children work at the family business and Ladd feels that his employees are the most important asset to his company—he feels that focus is true at Upland Hills Health as well.

“I feel Upland Hills Health is very important to the community, to Walnut Hollow and to my family,” he explained, “It’s important to make sure it remains strong.” His own experiences at the hospital and rehabilitation wing of the Nursing and Rehabilitation Center left Ladd with an appreciation of the hospital’s role in maintaining a vibrant community.

Ladd, whose own children and a grandchild were born at Upland Hills Health, is also a retired Air National Guardsman and serves on several state and county conservation boards.
