Welcoming Lesley Sacks as Robison Jewish Health Center Administrator

New Robison Jewish Health Center Administrator Lesley Sacks

Robison Jewish Health Center witnessed a not-so-solemn ceremony on Friday, January 23, 2013: the certificate affirming Lesley Sacks as the new administrator was placed on the notice board in an act dubbed ‘The Changing of the Paper.’ The ceremony completed 8 months of Lesley’s transition into her new role.

A Portland native, Lesley has been with Cedar Sinai Park since 2005: she served as Admissions Coordinator/Social Services Co-Director and previously as the Adult Day Services Director.

“I’m excited about the opportunity to serve our elders and grow within the organization. I have a strong affinity for this community and a special connection to Robison because many of my family members lived here, including my grandpa, great uncles and great aunts,” Lesley said.

Outlining her vision, Lesley said she wants to ensure Robison continues to enjoy strong leadership, particularly as Cedar Sinai Park moves to a new phase of its development. Short-term, she wants to make the transition smooth for residents, family members, and staff.
