Baptist Hospital Welcomes CAO Kevin Redd
From the Jul 14, 2026 e-Edition
HUNTINGDON (July 9) — Baptist Memorial Hospital-Carroll County welcomed new Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Kevin Redd to its team Thursday, celebrating with a community grab-and-go hot dog box lunch event in the hospital cafeteria.
Redd began his new position on June 29, continuing a 13-year career with Baptist Memorial Hospital. Before the move, Redd worked at Baptist Memorial Hospital in Collierville. Redd, a native Memphian, and his family — wife Jules, son Karson and daughters Eden and Nyla — relocated to Huntingdon this summer.
Redd was already familiar with Huntingdon, though, as he had completed both a one year fellowship and a rotation at the Carroll County hospital earlier in his career.
"My family and I are glad to be here in Carroll County," Redd said. "We have such a great team here, and the community has been nothing but welcoming to us."
