WEST BLOOMFIELD, Mich.—Waltonwood Cotswold, in Charlotte, N.C., announces Christy Yost, RN, as new resident care manager. Yost brings nearly 10 years of experience to her new role. She previously worked in medical surgical and pediatrics nursing before transitioning to senior living.
As resident care manager at Waltonwood Cotswold, Yost will be responsible for the well-being of assisted living and memory care residents and ensuring the team meets each resident’s daily needs. As a registered nurse, she also will assist with training CNAs and medical technicians, as well as coordinating resident travel to and from doctors’ appointments, medication management, and maintaining their diet.
“I love working with seniors and can’t wait to make a difference in the lives of residents at Waltonwood Cotswold,” said Yost. “Waltonwood Cotswold provides high quality care and services to its residents. I will deliver the same exceptional care, extraordinary service and hospitality expected in our community. These have been difficult times for many, but Waltonwood has handled the pandemic with true class, and everything they have done has been for the health and safety of residents and associates. We recently provided the COVID-19 vaccine to residents, and it will make a difference in the day-to-day lives of residents and associates. I am looking forward to building strong relationships with residents and associates, and I am honored to be working with this amazing team.”
Yost is originally from upstate New York. She began her nursing career in 2011 and made the switch to senior living five years later. She has well-rounded experience working with seniors in memory care and acute rehabilitation. She worked her way up from a supervisor to an assistant director of nursing at a long-term care community in New York. After researching Waltonwood Cotswold, she realized the company’s core values and beliefs matched hers and that she wanted to explore improving the lives of seniors in North Carolina.
