There’s a lot that goes into making our facility a home-away-from-home for our residents. We thank the people who make it possible.
Residents at La Solana enjoy superb medical care, a 7-day-a-week activities program, restaurant-style dining, full-service housekeeping and laundry services, transportation to and from appointments outside of the facility, and a number of other personalized services. Meet the members of the La Solana team who make it all possible.
Over 26 years ago I started my career in healthcare as a housekeeper in a small, acute care hospital with an attached skilled nursing facility. I worked in all departments and became very interested in management. Because of that, I became a licensed administrator in both Colorado and Minnesota. I took the position of Executive Director at La Solana in 2010.
I have a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and am a Certified Dietary Manager. I recently became a member of the American College of Health Care Administrators.
Elder care is a very important part of my life. I find great joy in helping our senior citizens receive the help they need to regain independence, when possible or in helping make their lives content and enjoyable as they travel though their final years. The daily smiles and the chance that I get to dry tears and give out hugs is what I enjoy most about my job.
