Skilled Nursing News caught up with Johnson to discuss their time in the skilled nursing industry.
SNN: What drew you to this industry?
Johnson: I enjoy working with older adults, especially by providing care and companionship. Listening to their stories and bringing joy to their lives brings me great satisfaction.
SNN: What’s your favorite part about your job?

SNN: What do you want society (or the general public) to know about your job?
Johnson: I want society to understand the importance of providing quality care to the elderly population.
SNN: What may be one thing leaders don’t know, that you wish they universally knew, about your job?
