With more than 15 years of progressive leadership experience, Moore is renowned for fostering a culture of safety, innovation and compassionate patient care. Her expertise spans critical care, emergency services, surgical services, infection prevention, and patient safety.
Most recently, she served as vice president of patient care services at JPS Health Network in Fort Worth, Texas, where she oversaw 3,500 colleagues, led transformative initiatives that enhanced patient outcomes, significantly reduced emergency department wait times, and improved operational efficiency.
“Julie is an exceptional leader whose track record demonstrates her dedication to quality care and staff engagement,” said Meredith Price, senior vice president of acute care at St. Joseph’s Health. “Her passion for innovation and team collaboration aligns perfectly with our mission to deliver world-class care to the communities we serve.”
Moore earned her Doctor of Nursing Practice in executive leadership from Baylor University, her MBA in healthcare management from Western Governors University, and her Bachelor of Science in nursing from the same institution. She holds certifications as a nurse executive advanced-board certified (NEA-BC) and a critical care registered nurse (CCRN).
In addition to her professional achievements, Moore has a strong commitment to community service, volunteering for initiatives such as feeding the homeless, supporting animal care organizations, and mentoring future nursing leaders.
Outside of work, she enjoys rescuing and fostering animals, reading, traveling, and most of all, spoiling her grandchildren.
