Administrator
Craig has been a part of the healthcare field for over 35 years, beginning his career as a Maintenance Supervisor at the Rehabilitation Center in Independence, Iowa. After earning his Administrator’s license, he transferred to Oelwein, where he has proudly led Grandview Healthcare Center and Oelwein Healthcare Center ever since.
Craig credits his success to the dedicated teams he works alongside, describing his role as the “easiest job in the building” thanks to their hard work, compassion, and ability to take on challenges while providing complex, individualized care.
Director of Nursing
Cindy’s nursing journey began at St. Luke’s School of Practical Nursing in Cedar Rapids. She went on to spend a decade in long-term care and agency nursing before joining the Oelwein Care Center in 1988. After earning her RN from Northeast Iowa Community College, she assumed the role of Director of Nursing, a position she has held ever since. Her guiding motivation is simple yet powerful: to make residents as happy as possible each day, delivering care that brings comfort, dignity, and even a smile.
Cindy focuses on delivering high-quality, compassionate service and has helped her facility achieve an impressive 12 consecutive deficiency-free surveys. She was honored as part of the inaugural class of Iowa’s Top 100 Nurses, a recognition that reflects both her leadership and her commitment to excellence in resident care.
