NorthLakes Community Clinic welcomes 3 new board members

NorthLakes Community Clinic has announced the addition of three new members to its Board of Directors: Kim Cuddeback, Megan Krause and Samantha Skuja. Each new member brings her own interests, passions and experiences to the federally qualified health center, which is governed by a patient majority board.

Megan Krause is a bookkeeper in Barron County. Her motivation to join the board stems from personal experience. Having faced access challenges with her children’s care in the past, she is eager to contribute to the enhancement of healthcare accessibility for folks in Rice Lake. With expertise in financial management and fundraising, Krause brings valuable skills to the table.

Kim Cuddeback is an administrative assistant in Price County. Her commitment to supporting the community and her passion for expanding healthcare services both align with NorthLakes’ dedication to meeting the evolving needs of its patient population.

Samantha Skuja of Marinette County joins the board with much enthusiasm for community service. As a current member of the Board of Education for a local private school and the policy council chairperson for their Head Start program, she knows what it means to bring resources to families in need. Skuja said the most fulfillment comes from providing help and making a change where it is needed.

NorthLakes Community Clinic encourages patient involvement on the board and welcomes new applications.

“Our patients are our leaders,” emphasized Chief Executive Officer Reba Rice. “With the inclusion of Kim, Megan and Samantha, our members anticipate added leadership and guidance as NorthLakes persists in providing high-quality health care to our communities.”

Additional board members include: Board President Amy Klebe, Vice President JoAnn Fleming, Treasurer Mike Flaherty, Secretary Michael Stamp, members Nick Eliot, Lisa Kingfisher, Dave Krochalk, Jason Martell, Nancy Miller, Judy Popelka, and honorary member John Schrock.
