"I have worked at Sunrise for 4 years. I worked for Elwyn for over 15 years in various HR capacities. After that I was an HR Specialist for Franklin Mint Federal Credit Union for 3 years, then a Senior Benefits Specialist for Allied Barton Security Services for 2 years. Also have my PHR which is a highly recognized and regarded Human Resources certificate.
My favorite part of the job is interacting with the Team Members and Residents. The best part of working at Sunrise is that I enjoy working in a people oriented profession and Sunrise provides that satisfaction by providing excellent care for seniors.
During my spare time I like to stay active by walking my dogs, working out at the gym and maintaining my home with my husband. I also enjoy reading and spending time with my children and grandchildren."
“In addition to serving as the Dining Services Coordinator, I am also a Cluster Leader and help to support seven area Sunrise communities in the surrounding Pennsylvania region. I am a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and worked locally at the Hotel DuPont for 15 years. I was also an Executive Chef for Fieldstone Golf Club and the Sodexo, Aramark and Compass Group corporations. As the Executive Chef for Gate Gourmet of Dulles Virginia Airport, my team produced 15,000 to 20,000 meals a day for 19 different International Airlines. I take great pride in helping to produce delicious ‘home cooked’ meals for our residents here at Sunrise of Wilmington. Another great aspect of working for Sunrise is the work-life balance that enables me to spend with my wife, Lori, and almost 4-year-old daughter, Chloe. In my spare time, I enjoy tropical vacations with my family, playing golf and listening to Jimmy Buffett. I also enjoy cooking for my friends and family at home.”
“I have been in the senior living industry for the past 10 years, and prior to joining the Sunrise of Wilmington team, I have worked in a variety of roles in memory care, assisted living, and independent living. Through my experiences, I have become a Certified Dementia Practitioner and Certified Activity Director.
"My name is Nancy Hutchison and I am the head concierge at Sunrise of Wilmington, DE. I have worked for Sunrise for a total of 14 years. I was here for 8 years when I had a death in my family and I chose to leave. I did not work for 2 years, when Tamme Hackett called and asked me if I was interested in coming back to work. I jumped at the chance. I have now been here another 6 years.
I like meeting all the new people that come into our community, and I like getting to know the residents and their families. It is interesting to talk to them and hear about their lives before Sunrise. The best part of working at Sunrise is interacting with the residents when they are doing activities and hearing how much they enjoyed where they went on their outings. It is always good to talk to them and hear the different ways they see things about where they went and what they did.
In my spare time, I enjoy doing crafts. I have done a few with the residents, but most of the time I do them with a friend. I often give out my crafts as gifts. I’m told by the heads of the department that they look forward to seeing what I give them for Christmas!"
