It is National Long Term Care Administrator’s Week. If you know our administrator, you know very well why this week is so important to us. If you don’t know her. Let us enlighten you.
Sandra Cline has been our administrator for over 9 years. In that 9 years, we have evacuated our facility 3 times for fires, endured the COVID pandemic and all that came with that, have had many life changes in our personal lives, have faced some major challenges that come with healthcare, and have dealt with the normal challenges that are often associated with nursing homes. Throughout the duration of all of that, Sandy has been our rock. She has guided us, molded us, and been exactly the kind of leadership that we needed. Even when she was dealing with some of her own personal challenges, she never skipped a beat on leading our team.
With Sandy as our administrator, we have consistently maintained a CMS 5-Star status for the past several years. And while that takes our whole team to accomplish, we know that it starts at the top. Without Sandy giving us all of the tools to be successful in our departments, it would not be feasible.
Long-term care administrators do so much to keep their facilities running smoothly and effectively. We are forever grateful to have one of the best in the business right here in our own nursing home. As her shirt says “Home is where your tribe is.” This home is better because she’s part of our tribe.
Thank you, Sandy, for all of your hard work, dedication, and leadership. You truly are the best of the best.
