Amanda Narloch, director of nursing at Elizabeth Residence, an assisted living community in Bayside, is an example of industry leadership, according to Richard Coury, co-founder, president and CEO of Elizabeth Residence.
Narloch started her career as a caregiver at age 16, became a certified nursing assistant while in high school and eventually a registered nurse. This December will mark 21 years for Narloch at Elizabeth Residence.
“As director of nursing, Amanda provides impactful advice and mentorship to her colleagues, some of whom are beginning career paths,” Coury said. “She guides them through complex situations and also offers emotional support to her colleagues in the event of immense stress or the loss of a beloved patient.”
“Amanda also goes out of her way to improve quality of life for her residents, from taking personal time to shop for new clothes for them at Goodwill to planning bowling trips for a resident who was a retired professional bowler,” Coury said.
This year, Narloch is hosting a “Senior Homecoming” event, in which residents dress their best and socialize with friends and neighbors.
