Happy National Nurses Week to the incredible nursing team at Valley Village!

This week, we proudly recognize and celebrate:

We are pleased to introduce Amy Chisamore, LPN! Amy joined Valley Village in late March as our new Facility Nurse. She has adapted quickly to her role and is already building strong connections with our residents.

Amy brings valuable experience in assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing. She is a thoughtful, dependable leader who is committed to high-quality care, patient safety, and supporting a collaborative team.

We are thrilled to have Amy on our team! With Amy in this role, all nursing-related communications should be directed to her and Heidi Carley, RN. MaryJo will be transitioning more fully into her role as Assisted Living Director.

Please feel free to stop by the Nurse’s Station to introduce yourself, or reach out to Amy via email at [email protected]. We are so happy she is here!
