Grand Forks, ND — Edgewood Healthcare is announcing the promotion of Jill Wilson-Chandler as part of a significant advancement in its organizational structure. This transformation reflects the long-term vision of Phil Gisi, Founder and CEO, as Edgewood evolves from a traditional assisted living provider into a vertically integrated healthcare organization, encompassing home health, hospice, therapy services, and Medicare insurance offerings.
Jill Wilson-Chandler, MBA, has been promoted to President of Edgewood’s Healthcare Division, effective July 1, 2025. Wilson-Chandler brings over 25 years of healthcare leadership and operational experience to her new role. She earned her bachelor’s degree in occupational therapy from the University of North Dakota and her MBA from Ohio University. She has led a wide range of clinical services throughout her career, including physician practices, therapy, home health, hospice, lab services, and radiology. Most notably, she served ten years as the administrative director of clinic operations for a 250-bed hospital system, overseeing primary care, orthopedics, neurosciences, and oncology.
In her new position, Wilson-Chandler will assume responsibility for the centralized management of all Medicare-reimbursed healthcare services within Edgewood. Her focus will be on integrating strategy and operations to ensure clinical consistency, operational efficiency, and continued excellence in patient care across all Edgewood communities.
