Carl Tabor

Healthcare has been engrained in Carl’s life since the young age of 12, when he began volunteering in a neighborhood residential care setting in southeast Portland playing cards, writing letters, and listening to residents share their life stories.

His passion for helping others followed him through life, as Carl took a self-study course to become a CNA while in high school and worked as a CNA and CMA for eight years.

Today, Carl has 46 years of experience in the healthcare field. He had led clinical risk management for over 500 skilled nursing buildings across the nation and was a licensed administrator in several states. He has held roles as a nurse, regional director of operations, vice president of nursing, division president of skilled nursing, and leads today as the Executive Vice President of Quality for the Avamere Family of Companies.

Carl holds his bachelor’s degree in nursing from Oregon Health Sciences University. While earning his bachelor’s, Carl also took post-grad classes in gerontology, counseling, and business administration.

When Carl isn’t working, he enjoys spending time with his family, including his four children.
