Expert Witness-Abuse-Neglect-Wrongful Death-Care Matters

Using my knowledge and experience, I help attorneys build the strongest case possible.  My focus starts with the degree to which the facility met applicable Federal and State regulations and extends to offering unique insights into the root cause factors that may have led to an unfortunate outcome.  I look at all aspects of "care matters"!

I always worked at the operations level.  I know the day-to-day challenges of meeting the needs and expectations of residents, families, and State licensing agencies.  I successfully achieved 25 consecutive years of licensing surveys all within substantial compliance.  Most recently, I led my facility to achieve 5 Star ratings for all CMS Star rating measures; health inspections, staffing, and quality for 4 consecutive quarters! 

I received my B.S. in Business Administration from The Ohio State University and M.B.A from Wright State University.  I worked ten years in acute care hospitals before beginning my path to becoming a Nursing Home Administrator.  I earned my California Nursing Home Administrator's license in 1997.  I've been the Administrator of facilities as small as 75 beds to as large as 220.  In addition, I have served as a Health Center Administrator (assisted living, dementia care, and SNF) and an Executive Director of entry fee model continuing care retirement communities.
