Brent Swan
ADMINISTRATOR
Brent Swan brings more than a decade of long-term care experience to his role as Administrator at Auburn Village. After spending 10 years as a nurse, Brent transitioned into administration because he saw firsthand how strong, involved leadership can improve the experiences of residents, families, and staff.
Brent believes that trust begins with being present and accessible. He wants residents and their families to know who he is, feel comfortable stopping by his office, and trust that their questions and concerns will be heard. His clinical background also gives him a valuable understanding of resident care and the daily responsibilities of the team he leads.
His leadership style is collaborative and open-minded. Brent welcomes different perspectives, encourages honest conversations, and carefully considers all sides before making decisions. His goal is to create stability at Auburn Village—a place where residents feel comfortable making their home and where employees feel supported and motivated to build lasting careers.
Originally from Wabash County, Brent grew up on a small dairy farm and has deep roots in northeast Indiana. Outside of work, he enjoys spending time with his three children, coaching baseball, hunting, fishing, golfing, gardening, caring for his animals, and life on his 10-acre property.
For Brent, serving as Administrator of Auburn Village is an opportunity to build meaningful relationships, provide steady leadership, and make a lasting difference in the lives of residents and their families.
Sandy Kinsey
DIRECTOR OF NURSING
Sandy has been in the healthcare field the majority of her life, starting out as a CNA in high school and working her way up along with briefly working in the intensive care unit / emergency room. But her passion for long term care eventually landed her right back to where Sandy is still at till this day.
What attracts Sandy so much to long term care is the impact she can make in people’s lives. “I love the relationships that we build with the residents, staff and families. I became a director of nursing to be able to impact the delivery of care and to help ensure quality of life for those that we are honored to serve. I love long term care nursing because it encompasses all aspects of the residents life needs. We are there to listen when they need to talk, hug when they are feeling down, and reorient if they become confused. It is so enriching to be able to listen to their life stories.”
Sandy takes pride working at Auburn Village, working hard with the staff to make the facility the best it could possibly be and taking it to its full potential. “Our facility is absolutely beautiful. The renovations are top of the line. It is welcoming and friendly. The team at Auburn Village is all focused on working together to make this the best facility possible. The team at AV is willing to help each other out to help promote positive outcomes. Each of the team members truly embody the belief and principles of servant leadership and the desire to serve others.”
