The Brewster Board of Directors is pleased to announce that Walter J. (Joe) Ewert, will assume duties as President and Chief Executive Officer on January 1, 2019, succeeding David Beck, who announced his retirement in late spring.
Ewert currently serves as Vice President of Health Services at Brewster Place.
Ewert’s appointment culminated a nation-wide search conducted by the Brewster board.
“We are delighted that Joe has accepted this most important position at this time in Brewster’s fifty- plus year history of providing award-winning programs to elders in our community,” said Darin Stephens, Chair of the board of directors. “We see Joe’s passion for providing state-of-the-art care, positive environments, and experiences to our residents and off-campus clients. Quite frankly, Joe is the right fit for Brewster at this time.”
Brewster Place is in the midst of completing a major project constructing an indoor pool, expanded exercise facilities, new dining venues, spa and living accommodations. The project is expected to be completed in early 2020.
