Krajack joins Heritage Health

Heritage Health has hired Colleen Krajack to be the new vice president of human resources.

Krajack, who brings 25 years of experience to the role, previously worked for Inland Northwest manufacturing companies, such as Raycap, Ground Force and Transtector Systems.

“We’re very excited to have Colleen with us,” said CEO Mike Baker. “She is going to help us on our journey as a growing community health center.”

Krajack has deep ties to the North Idaho community, including Heritage Health, which previously operated under the name the Dirne Clinic until 2004. Lidwin Dirne founded the clinic to provide access to affordable health care to those without health insurance.

“I am here because having known Lidwin Dirne from as early as my own baptism, I can appreciate that our mission is both life and community-saving,” she said. “I am here to help us be the best Heritage Health we can be for our employees so that they can be the best they can be for our patients and community.”

Heritage Health is a community health center, serving about 30,000 patients annually in Kootenai, Shoshone, and Benewah counties. The nonprofit employs about 300 people, including more than 90 providers. It has clinic locations in Coeur d’Alene, Post Falls, Rathdrum, St. Maries and Kellogg.

“The people I know and love either work for the organization, or they’re patients of Heritage Health, so I am highly motivated to dedicate my efforts to honoring them,” said Krajack.

Colleen is married to her husband, Scott. Together, they have two daughters, Cassie and Kennedy.
