Clayton Coker
Maintenance Director
Hello, my name is Clayton. I was born and raised here in Georgia. I have four beautiful children and two grandchildren.
Since I was little, I have been interested in the medical field because most of my family works in this sector. However, my background was in the construction sector, and until 2014 I could fulfill my dream of serving in the medical sector by moving into the maintenance director role in a skilled nursing facility, after that I just fell in love with senior living, I don’t see myself doing anything else in my career. I love my job as maintenance director, and I genuinely enjoy serving our seniors and their families.
