Meet Taylor Shaw

Executive Director, St. Matthews

My name is Taylor Shaw and I am the Executive Director at St. Matthews Care Center. I have been blessed to work in healthcare for 16 years.

When I was a teenager, my mother was diagnosed with stage 4 Breast Cancer, enduring a double mastectomy and going through chemo and radiation treatments. Providing her with care became part of my daily routine. Doing this I found that I had a mission in healthcare. As cliché as it sounds, I truly believe it is a calling. I got my start in long-term care at age 16 as a CNA at Episcopal Church Home. After several years of working as a CNA, I realized that I had aspirations of becoming a Nursing Home Administrator. I graduated in 2015 with my Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration with an Emphasis in Healthcare.

I look up to our residents and enjoy learning and hearing about their past history and experiences. I love aiding in giving them a dignified quality of life! We have such a diverse, caring and compassion group of caregivers here at St. Matthews. Our team is caring, compassionate and honest. We aspire to provide great relationships and quality care and exceed expectations.
