CANANDAIGUA – UR Medicine Thompson Health recently named a new Executive Director for its independent and assisted living communities of Ferris Hills at West Lake and Clark Meadows.
Meghan Gravino officially assumes her new role at the senior communities on Oct. 23.
A resident of Williamson in Wayne County, Gravino is a graduate of SUNY Brockport who earned her master’s degree in social work via a collaborative program offered jointly by Brockport and Nazareth University. She is currently pursuing an Advanced Certificate in Long-Term Care through D’Youville University in Buffalo, with anticipated completion in March of 2024.
Gravino first joined Thompson nearly seven years ago, as a medical social worker in its M.M. Ewing Continuing Care Center. Last year, she became the facility’s assistant administrator. “Meghan is knowledgeable, compassionate, and skilled at making connections. We know she will continue to shine in her new role,” said Thompson Health President/CEO Michael F. Stapleton, Jr.
