Touchmark on West Century Retirement Community

05/10/2026

Today, we celebrate the mothers, grandmothers, and mother-like figures who have shaped our lives in countless ways.

Across Touchmark communities, we’re honored to be surrounded by remarkable women whose stories, wisdom, and love continue to inspire us every day. Many of our residents have spent a lifetime caring for others—raising families, building traditions, and creating legacies that live on through generations.

To all of you who have nurtured, guided, supported, and loved so deeply—thank you. We are truly grateful to have you as part of our extended Touchmark family.

"To the world you are a mother, but to your family you are the world." —Unknown

Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at Touchmark.

What makes nursing at Touchmark different?

It’s the relationships.

Our nurses have the opportunity to truly get to know residents: their stories, their families, and what matters most to them. That connection transforms care into something deeply personal and incredibly meaningful.

As one of our nurses shared, “Getting to know those stories … creates a sense of purpose that goes far beyond tasks.”

If you’re looking for a place where you can slow down, build real relationships, and make a lasting impact, Touchmark could be the right fit for your next chapter in nursing.

Stay tuned throughout the week as we continue to celebrate our nurses with stories, photos, and more.

As we continue celebrating Nurses Week, we’re excited to spotlight yet one more (last but definitely not least) of our incredible nurses! 💙

Originally from Glendive, Montana, she began her healthcare journey as a CNA while earning her Associate of Science degree. In 2022, she moved to Mandan, North Dakota, to continue her education at the University of Mary, where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing.

After relocating to Mandan, she continued working as a CNA before transitioning into a CMA role while in nursing school. During her final year of school, she welcomed her son into the world on her dad’s birthday — weighing 8 pounds, 7 ounces and measuring 22 inches long! After graduation, she began her nursing career in home health before joining the team at Touchmark.

Her inspiration to become a nurse came from a deeply personal experience. In 2017, her father suffered a traumatic brain injury due to a workplace accident. During his stay in the ICU, his nurse showed incredible compassion, support, and comfort to both him and their family.

Through that experience, she realized she wanted to be that same source of care, reassurance, and strength for others during life’s most difficult moments.

Outside of work, she has always loved animals and grew up bringing plenty of them home — including a goat, pig, chickens, and even a 4-H steer! What started as convincing her dad to let her get one goat eventually turned into a family love for them. Today, her dad has three goats…plus three baby goats!

On her days off, she enjoys resetting her home, spending time at coffee shops with friends and family, and making memories with her toddler as he explores and learns about the world around him.

Her advice for aspiring nurses:
“Just remember — when you’re a nurse, you’re never alone. We continually support one another, sharing knowledge, experience, and guidance as we grow together in our practice.”

Thank you for the compassion, kindness, and dedication you bring to our residents, families, and team each day! ✨

As we continue celebrating Nurses Week, we’re excited to spotlight another one of our incredible nurses — Tiffany Werre! 💙

Tiffany lives in Lincoln, ND with her boyfriend, two children, and their busy household of two dogs and two cats. She’s a proud sports mom who loves cheering on her kids — her daughter is involved in dance, while her son participates in cross country and lacrosse, keeping their family active and always on the go.

Tiffany has been a nurse for 4.5 years after spending 12 years as a CMA II. Her passion for caring for others has always been a meaningful part of her life. She has dedicated much of her career to assisted living, basic care, and memory care, where building meaningful connections with residents truly matters to her.

When asked what inspired her to become a nurse, Tiffany shared a heartfelt story:
“My love for nursing runs deep. My mom was a psychiatric nurse who always dreamed of becoming a travel nurse. She passed away when I was 17, but her passion for caring for others continues to inspire me every day. I’m proud to carry a piece of her with me as I follow in her footsteps and live out the love for nursing that she passed on to me.”

Outside of work, Tiffany enjoys hosting family gatherings, baby showers, and birthday parties — bringing people together is one of her special talents! On her days off, she enjoys going to the gym, spending quality time with family, and a little shopping to recharge.

Her advice for aspiring nurses:
“You don’t have to have every answer in the moment. What matters is your willingness to seek it out and follow through.”

Thank you, Tiffany, for the compassion, heart, and dedication and calm spirit you bring to our residents and team each day! ✨

Nurses Week Spotlight continued: Meet Kayla Marchus, our Clinical Care Manager! 🌟

Kayla is a dedicated nurse, loving wife, and proud mom of three—two daughters and a son. She’s also a dog mom to Ghost.

Kayla began her healthcare journey in 2004 as a CNA. With encouragement from a fellow Nurse Anesthetist she worked alongside, she pursued nursing and has now been a nurse for 11 years. We’ve been lucky to have Kayla as part of the Touchmark family for the past 5 years!

She’s currently working toward her Nurse Practitioner degree and is set to graduate in May 2027—an incredible accomplishment!

When she’s not caring for others, Kayla enjoys unwinding with walks alongside her kids and dog Ghost, or spending time fishing on the boat with her family.

Her favorite piece of advice:
✨ “Every day is a new day. Today may be difficult and challenging, but tomorrow could be the best day of your life. Never give up.” ✨

Thank you, Kayla, for your compassion, dedication, drive, and the heart you bring to our community every day!
