Director of Nursing

Amber Hayes, MSN, AGACNP-BC

A board-certified acute care nurse practitioner with a decade of hospital leadership, Amber has served as the lead provider for a Level 1 trauma service in Phoenix and managed overnight inpatient care for complex surgical patients. She has written clinical protocols, trained nurses and new providers, and run a post-discharge follow-up clinic, and brings that same rigor here: medication safety, health screening, close coordination with each resident's doctors, and the judgment to spot early when someone needs a higher level of care.
