Sandy Kinsey

But her passion for long term care eventually landed her right back to where Sandy is still at till this day.

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.”

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.
