Regency Retirement Village of Tuscaloosa Executive Director

Jennifer Anderson

For over twenty years, I have been deeply committed to enhancing the lives of older adults. While our time is finite, the spirit, faith, experiences, and talents we possess are boundless. I find great fulfillment in helping individuals feel valued and ensuring they finish strong, knowing their lives matter up until the very last moment. My grandparents were remarkable people, and knowing they lived with dignity brings me immense joy. This is the standard of care I strive to provide for everyone.

Daphne Boswell – Community Consultant

I hold an associate degree in science and am a licensed dental hygienist. My career in sales and the medical field spans over three decades since 1992. In my leisure time, I enjoy painting, gardening, and spending time with my animals. My guiding scripture is 2 Timothy 1:7. I am passionate about connecting with new people and providing families with the reassurance that their loved ones are receiving the highest level of care. Bringing joy to others is immensely rewarding to me.

Jenny Laubscher – Outreach Liaison

My nursing career began in 2007 as a pediatric nurse, where I initially believed my passion would remain. However, in 2019, my role in case management revealed the critical importance of community resources for older adults. This experience, coupled with hands-on work with seniors, ignited a new passion in me. I am now honored to serve as the Outreach Liaison for Regency, where I have the privilege of educating Tuscaloosa and the surrounding areas on the unique qualities that set us apart.

I take great pride in seeing the joy on our residents’ faces and in making our new residents feel truly at home. My foremost goal is to ensure each resident remains engaged and full of life.

Rachel Adams – Director of Nursing

With over three decades of experience in the healthcare industry, I have cultivated a deep commitment to the well-being of geriatric residents. My journey began as a home health aide and caregiver, progressing through 18 years as an LPN before becoming an RN. My career has spanned urgent care, family medicine, hospice, and long-term care before joining the Regency team. I believe that as the elderly population continues to live longer, they deserve compassionate care that ensures their safety and well-being. My primary objective is to create a warm and secure environment for all our residents.

This role has been both a rewarding and enlightening experience.

Caring for others is not just my profession; it is my passion.
