Each year, we take a moment to reflect on the many blessings we have to be grateful for. At the very top of that list are our residents 🎉💛, who remind us each day to appreciate the little things—those simple moments that are so easy to overlook. They show us the beauty in the ordinary ✨ and the impact a small gesture can have on someone’s life.

We are deeply grateful for our staff and therapy team 🙌❤️, who give so much of themselves in ways that go above and beyond what anyone could ask. Their kindness, dedication, and compassion are the heart of everything we do.

We are thankful for our administration 🎄🧡, whose behind-the-scenes efforts keep everything running smoothly so we can continue carrying out the mission we are all so passionate about.

We are equally grateful for our ancillary departments 🌟🎁—the steady pillars who support us day in and day out and help keep our community grounded and strong.

And to the families who show up 💕—we see you, we commend you, and we cannot thank you enough for the love, time, and support you pour into your loved ones.

This year, we are thankful for so much 🍂✨. Our wish is that you, too, take a moment to pause and recognize how fortunate we all are—and how much there truly is to be thankful for. 🙏❤️

And now… let the feasting begin! 🦃🎉

The Gardens at York Terrace is proud to introduce Christine Reichert as our new Director of Nursing. ⭐️
Christine officially accepted the permanent DON position in September, but her nursing journey began much earlier—in 1993 as a CNA. She quickly expanded her clinical experience in a hospital Emergency Department as an ER tech before pursuing nursing school, graduating in 2013. 🩺

Christine’s strong clinical background and natural leadership guided her into long-term care, where she shares that she “truly found my calling.” She has since served as a Unit Manager and advanced to Director of Nursing, thriving in the family-like atmosphere and meaningful connections found in the nursing home setting. 💙

She is eager to make York Terrace her “home” and looks forward to making a positive impact on our residents, staff, and community. 🏡

Outside of work, Christine cherishes time with her husband, children, and grandchildren. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 She enjoys shooting pool year-round 🎱, and when warm weather arrives, she loves going “glamping”—her favorite way to relax in nature with a touch of comfort. ⛺🌞

Please join us in welcoming Christine to The Gardens at York Terrace! 🎉
