DME manufacturer GF Health Products Inc. (Graham-Field) has promoted Ken Spett to the position of president and chief operating officer.
Spett’s background in the healthcare industry includes a variety of senior executive, sales, and marketing positions over longer than 30 years. The company says Spett’s experience and industry knowledge are among its most valuable assets.
Beatrice Scherer will continue, in her role as CEO, to oversee administration and strategic planning, while Spett will focus on operations and sales. Together Scherer and Spett will move forward to build on Graham-Field’s winning framework: the manufacture and distribution of well-known, name-brand healthcare products that symbolize quality and value.
Spett began his career with Graham-Field in 1983 as vice president of operations for Labtron Scientific Corp., then became Corporate vice president of marketing when Labtron and Graham-Field merged. He later served Graham-Field as vice president of its Medical/Surgical Division, senior vice president, and most recently, executive vice president, where he was responsible for the Medical/Surgical, Homecare, Long Term Care, Consumer, and International Strategic Business Units, as well as Global Operations and Marketing.
