Highland Health Care Center Names Executive DirectorLiszewski brings deep industry experience to her new role at Highland Health Care Center. She has been working in the skilled nursing industry for more than 13 years, most recently as the administrator of Integrity Healthcare of Godfrey, a 68-bed skilled nursing facility. Previously, she held the area rehabilitation manager position at Town & Country Rehab, in Southern Illinois, and also served as Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant for AW Healthcare, in Maryville, IL.“I was first exposed to skilled nursing and geriatrics when I was very young,” Liszewski said. “My mother was a member of the Edwardsville (Ill.) Garden Club, and they would have frequent volunteer events at the Madison County Sheltered Care Home. I loved helping out and being a surrogate granddaughter to their residents. I knew I wanted to be in healthcare, and went into occupational therapy and home care before moving into skilled nursing. “My favorite thing about working in skilled nursing is, hands down, the relationships you build with the residents and staff,” she added. “I have several ‘adopted’ grandparents, aunts, and uncles here already. I love being able to be a shoulder to lean on and provide leadership.” A resident of Edwardsville, Ill., Liszewski attended Lindenwood University, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in healthcare management and a master’s degree in healthcare administration with a focus on health/health care administration/management.
