 Our Management Team

 Michelle Greer, RN, NHA  Facility Administrator
 Michelle started her career in long term care at a young age. She began working at Four Corners Health Care when she was only 15  and her passion for the industry grew from that point. She pursued a career in nursing and despite many nursing opportunities and  challenges, always seemed to be drawn back to long-term care. She most currently served as the Director of Nursing at Four Corners  Health Care from 2008-2013. In 2013, the opportunity to become the administrator presented itself and she decided to obtain her  Nursing Home Administrator license and transition into the role of administrator at the facility.  Michelle is a leader in culture change at Four Corners Health and is always seeking new ways to create a home-like environment for our Residents.
