Barb Scott of Legacy Retirement Communities Earns Certification in Gerontological Nursing

Legacy Retirement Communities (www.legacyretirement.com) announces that Barb Scott, BSN, RN recently earned her board certification in gerontological nursing by the American Nurses Credentialing Center. Scott has served as the director of clinical operations for Legacy Retirement Communities for the past four years and is looking forward to applying this additional knowledge to enhance the lives of Legacy residents by focusing on healthy aging.

“We are so fortunate to have Barb and her skills on our team, and I commend her success in gaining this certification. Less than 1% of all nurses have achieved this type of certification, so we are very excited to have this knowledge base in the Legacy communities.” says Human Resources Director Jenny Gall. “We look forward to Barb sharing her knowledge with her staff, ultimately resulting in a higher level of well-being for each person in our communities.”
