Josh Allee Featured in Catholic Health World

Worth County grad Josh Allee was featured in Catholic Health World, a publication focusing on Catholic healthcare systems around the country. He is the SSM Health System Vice President of Formation and Spirituality.

Allee’s job is to help employees integrate what they have learned in school into the workplace, creating institutional knowledge of best practices.

SSM offers a wide range of formation programming, including training people with potential for leadership. Leadership training programming involves focusing on integrating spiritual practices into work life.

Allee also serves on the Catholic Health Association’s Ministry Formation Advisory Committee. The Catholic Health Association serves Catholic healthcare systems like SSM. He said in Catholic Health World that CHA resources have been important in his formation work at SSM.

SSM has around 55,000 employees and affiliated providers in 23 hospitals and at additional care sites across four states.

With the decline of vowed religious leaders throughout the church and the Catholic healthcare system, there has been a growing need for lay people like Allee to assume formation roles and transmit teachings to others with proper grounding.

He is the son of Ruby Allee and the late Doug Allee of Sheridan. He taught at Worth County and was an area basketball official at one point.
