Deborah L. Petrine

A first generation college student, Deborah Petrine worked her way through Virginia Tech as a Secretary/Receptionist in a nursing home. Upon graduation, she entered the organizations Administrator in Training Program and worked her way up through the company, eventually becoming President at one of Virginia’s largest providers of long term care services. Under her leadership, the company expanded from skilled nursing facilities to add assisted living facilities, a pharmacy company and a home health company. In 1996, she co-founded and served as President of Colonial Care, LLC managing facilities in Virginia and North Carolina. This company grew throughout the State of Virginia and was purchased in 1998. Ms. Petrine’s desire to be a “hands on” manager and to own and operate facilities led her to leave that organization to form CCR where she continues to serve as Chairman and CEO. CCR began operating in July 2001 and has grown to twelve skilled facilities. Additionally, in 2010 she served as President of Longleaf Senior Living, LLC managing 35 assisted living facilities in North Carolina.
