Amy Davis was surprised Thursday afternoon when the town hall she thought she was attending at Wamego’s Valley Vista turned out to be a celebration in her honor.
Davis is the Valley Vista Director of Nursing.
When she came into the room, it wasn’t just the regional vice president she saw – it was Nate Schema, President and CEO of the Good Samaritan Society, the organization which owns Valley Vista. Schema was in Wamego to present Davis the Ever-Forward Award.

Davis said it’s the residents and co-workers which makes her job so fulfilling.
Davis, along with the other champions, will be honored in June at a banquet in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
