RUMFORD — Rumford Community Home announces that registered nurse Lisa Jamison has been chosen as its director of nursing services. Jamison was the assistant director of nurses/MDS coordinator at RCH prior to accepting the position.

She has been providing nursing care services since 1995 when she started as a certified nurse’s aide at Rumford Community Home. She continued as a nurse’s aid while raising her two children.
