Tonya K.

Director of Nursing

Tonya leads with compassion, high standards, and a firmly practical approach to care. As Director of Nursing, she has helped guide her facility to top-tier performance — a five‑star rating and a deficiency‑free survey stand as testaments to her commitment to clinical excellence and consistent regulatory readiness.

Tonya’s motivation is steady and straightforward: she is a helper at heart. Nursing called to her as a way to make a meaningful difference. After early experience in surgical settings, she returned to long‑term care, where daily, face‑to‑face connections align with her values. Tonya believes in hands-on mentorship—teaching staff the skills they need, encouraging questions, and modeling that no task is beneath anyone on the team. That philosophy creates an environment where staff feel empowered and residents receive thoughtful, respectful care.

Her leadership style blends practicality with kindness: clear expectations, visible support, and a focus on small acts of compassion that improve someone’s day. Those “little kindnesses,” she says, add up to a better workplace and better outcomes for residents.
