Yvette Luster-West joined Lutheran Life Villages as community liaison in January.
In this role, Yvette is responsible for external marketing, sharing information about all the good things Lutheran Life Villages has to offer. She’s already busy visiting hospitals, churches, and other organizations, making a connection with medical professionals, the business community, church leaders, and potential residents. Yvette will also coordinate special events aimed at putting Lutheran Life Villages in the spotlight.
“My goal is to spread the word in Fort Wayne and the surrounding area about what a great senior community we have at Lutheran Life Villages,” Yvette says. “Although it’s been several months since the name change, some professionals and community members are still not aware of our new identity as Lutheran Life Villages. I invite both professional and community members to visit us. When they come, they’ll experience the family atmosphere. I love to share all of the wonderful things happening here. The name change is a perfect match for what’s offered.”
A native of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, and a graduate of Harrisburg Community College, Yvette brings a wide range of experience to her new position. In addition to being a licensed practical nurse, she’s also held leadership positions in independent and assisted living and long-term health care.
“I’ve done a little of just about everything,” Yvette says. “But I have a real passion for working with the older community. I believe we have an obligation to give back for all they’ve sacrificed for us.”
Yvette and her husband, James, have a daughter, Amber. In addition to her duties with Lutheran Life Villages, Yvette volunteers for efforts that foster the empowerment of women and children.
