Sandy Kursban, Founder/Chairman
In 1968, Sandy felt that there was a need for senior care that was not being met in the community, and Family & Nursing Care was born. Naturally, she has performed every job function in the company at one time or another over the years. Sandy is currently serving on the board of the Private Care Association – a national association of home care referral service agencies, and the Association of Independent Health Care Owners – local to Maryland. With a degree in Family Studies, Sandy worked as a Caseworker with foster children prior to starting Family & Nursing Care. When she is not overseeing the business, Sandy enjoys spending time with her grandchildren, nature walks, bird watching, art, traveling, "and sometimes doing nothing at all." Sandy says that someday she wants to learn to play the harp and return to South Dakota to feed the buffaloes.
