Seneca Healthcare District in Chester reports that one of its primary providers, Stephen Hayden, has retired. SHD welcomes a new provider, Sarah Finnerty, to its Lake Almanor Walk-In Clinic starting July 15.
For several years, family nurse practitioner Stephen Hayden has been the primary provider for the Lake Almanor Walk-In Clinic. SHD reports that Hayden has cared for many community members and individuals throughout his time with the hospital. July 3 was Hayden’s last day with SHD. As he retires, Hayden will be missed by patients and colleagues alike, reports SHD: “He has been a great resource to the area these past five years and we wish him all the best.”
“Stephen Hayden has been a pleasure to work with and get to know,” says Brady Haynes, Seneca chief operating officer.
Dr. Sarah Finnerty will be working with SHD through the summer season, starting July 15. In the meantime, nurse Lori Koehler and Dr. Amanda Hartman will assist in covering the walk-in clinic.
