Amanda Harrell

Director of Nursing Arts, since 2019

Helping others has always been something I have enjoyed doing.  As a child, I knew from kindergarten on that I wanted to be a nurse.  Prior to coming to Arbor Acres, I worked at the hospital for 5 years.

I have been with Arbor Acres for almost 28 years and have worked with so many wonderful residents, families and staff during my time here.  It is so rewarding to hear their stories.

As a part of the Arbor Acres team, my goal is to help our residents enjoy their lives, maintain their independence as long as possible, as well as providing comfort and support to them and their families.

Through the years, I have had the opportunity to work with staff from all walks of life and with many different backgrounds and experiences. Amid our diversity, there is one common theme that stands out: the genuine passion and compassion our staff display when caring for our residents. No matter what department they work in, each person plays an important role in supporting our residents and making Arbor Acres a special place.
