Our NMHCA/NMCAL team, along with New Mexico NCAL State Leader Olivia Romero, had a rewarding experience attending the 2026 AHCA/NCAL Delivering Solutions Conference in Boston. During the conference, Vicente and Olivia had the opportunity to participate in the AHCA Council of States and NCAL State Leaders Joint Meeting, where they engaged in meaningful discussions about important issues, challenges, and opportunities impacting the long term care profession. These conversations are vital as we work alongside leaders from across the country to share perspectives, strengthen collaboration, and advocate for the providers, caregivers, and residents we proudly serve.

We're grateful for the opportunity to represent New Mexico, connect with fellow leaders, and bring home valuable insights that will help us continue supporting our members and strengthening long term care across our state. Learn more about the NMHCA/NMCAL at www.nmhca.org

This week, NMHCA/NMCAL is proud to celebrate Health Care Foodservice Workers Week and recognize the individuals who help nourish and care for residents throughout our long-term care communities! Health care foodservice professionals do so much more than prepare and serve meals. They help meet residents’ unique nutritional needs, accommodate preferences and dietary requirements, create enjoyable dining experiences, and often bring an extra smile and personal connection to someone’s day. Here are just a few of the amazing foodservice professionals from our NMHCA/NMCAL member communities who serve residents each day. To all of our health care foodservice workers, thank you for the care, dedication, and heart you bring to your work. Your role is an important part of resident health, quality of life, and the overall experience within our long-term care communities.

Today, we are pleased to spotlight Jody Knox, a valued member of the NMHCA/NMCAL Board of Directors who has also served our association as Past President. Jody is the CEO of Lakeview Christian Home in Carlsbad, New Mexico, an organization that provides skilled nursing, assisted living, home health, physical therapy, hospice, and other services to seniors and their families. Lakeview is committed to compassionate, high-quality, person-centered care in a faith-based environment, with a mission centered on honoring God through service to seniors and their families. For Jody, however, Lakeview is much more than a place to work, it has been an important part of her life for many years. “I came to Lakeview as a young girl, and it has been my whole life. The residents, patients, families, and staff are what make this Christian organization and its mission so special to me.” — Jody Knox

That deep personal connection is reflected in Jody’s dedication to the people she serves and her leadership within New Mexico’s long-term care community. Jody, thank you for your years of leadership, service, and commitment to NMHCA/NMCAL and to the residents, families, and professionals who make long-term care so special.

We had an incredible time at the Dueling Pianos event during our 2026 NMHCA/NMCAL Annual Convention! With two talented pianists playing face-to-face, along with drums, guitars, and plenty of audience participation, the evening was filled with music from across the decades. Our musicians took requests, attendees joined in to sing some of their favorites, and there was no shortage of dancing, laughter, great food, and fun! Events like this are such a great reminder that our convention is not only about learning and professional growth, it’s also about building relationships, connecting with colleagues, and enjoying time together as a long-term care community. A huge THANK YOU to PharmcareUSA for sponsoring this wonderful event and helping us create such a memorable evening! Enjoy some of the highlights from a fantastic night!

During National Assisted Living Week, NMHCA/NMCAL is honored to recognize the remarkable people who bring New Mexico’s assisted living communities to life. Every day, assisted living professionals have the privilege of walking alongside residents through the moments that matter, sharing stories, encouraging independence, offering a helping hand, creating new memories, and providing reassurance to families who have entrusted them with someone they love. It takes an extraordinary team to make that possible. From caregivers and nurses to administrators, dining and activities teams, maintenance professionals, and support staff, each person plays an important role in creating communities where residents can continue to live with dignity, purpose, connection, and joy. To our NMHCA/NMCAL assisted living members, we see the dedication you bring to this profession, and we are grateful for the difference you make in the lives of New Mexico’s seniors and their families. This week, we celebrate you, your residents, and the meaningful relationships that make assisted living so special. Thank you for all you do!
