Adams Co. nursing assistant loses credentials
STAFF REPORT | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 9 months, 1 week AGO
OLYMPIA — The Washington Department of Health announced that it has indefinitely suspended Lisa Ann Adams’ certified nursing assistant credential. Her license was suspended in November, but it was announced in mid-December.
According to the statement, in February 2025, the Department of Social and Health Services determined that Adams had financially exploited a vulnerable adult. The investigation resulted in her being placed on the long-term care abuse and neglect registry effective March 2025. Her placement on the registry prohibits her from working with or having unsupervised access to vulnerable adults.
Adams did not respond to the WDOH requests for further information.
