Buckley named president and CEO of Wake Robin

Wake Robin, a home to about 400 older adults off Bostwick Road just north of Charlotte, has named Meagan Buckley of Richmond as president and CEO.

Buckley has served as the director of health and resident services at Wake Robin for five years and held the interim president and CEO role prior to her appointment. She is a licensed nursing home administrator who held leadership positions within the industry before joining Wake Robin’s staff.

“Meagan has a proven track record, knows the community very well, and is able to get things done effectively, with compassion, poise and a wonderful sense of humor,” Wake Robin board chair John Maitland said.

Buckley succeeds outgoing president and CEO Martha Maksym, who led Wake Robin for three years before retiring, including through the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic.
