Meet The Team

Meet our leadership team! As apart of the NHC team, it is important to showcase the Better Way. The Better Way is NHC's philosophy of care which raises the bar of excellence. It is based upon 20 promises that NHC has set forth for our partners to achieve everyday.  Part of the Better Way is to have each partner write a purpose statement. These purpose statements are more than just job duties; it is the why behind what we do. To get to know the members of our leadership team, we have highlighted their personal purpose statements.
