Nathan Littauer Hospital & Nursing Home is thrilled to announce the appointment of Emily Wright, RN, BSN, MS, MBA, as their new Senior Director of Provider Practices. Emily brings a wealth of experience, exceptional nursing leadership skills, and a profound commitment to patient care and medical staff support to her new role.

Welcome Emily!

Emily’s academic credentials are impressive and diverse. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Business from SUNY Geneseo in 2008, followed by an accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Rochester School of Nursing in 2011. She continued her education at the University of Rochester, achieving a dual degree in Master’s of Science in Nursing and an MBA in 2013.

Emily chose Nathan Littauer for its unique environment and commitment to personalized care. “There is a lot of uniqueness about Nathan Littauer,” she noted. “I’ve worked with larger institutions, but here, I feel privileged to directly impact patient care outcomes. The personal touch in care can mean the world to patients. When I stepped in the door, I felt like I belonged. There is a real capability for inclusiveness here—not just the idea of teamwork, but the actuality of it. Larger healthcare networks can feel impersonal and overwhelming, but here at Littauer – it feels like home.”

Throughout her career, Emily has garnered experience in various healthcare settings. She most recently worked with Honest Medical Group, a joint venture start-up partnered with Community Care Physicians, focusing on value-based care for Medicare recipients. Prior to that, she served at Albany Medical Health System as the Director of Nursing of Faculty Practices and Director of Operations of Emergency Services. Her tenure at Malta Med Emergent Care (MMEC) as the Site Administrator saw her overseeing urgent care volumes, a full-service laboratory, and a comprehensive suite of radiology services. Emily also served as a Practice Nurse with the University of Rochester in the Emergency Department and Intensive Care Unit, honing her hands-on patient care expertise.

Emily is dedicated to enhancing the patient experience at Nathan Littauer. She aims to provide greater access to Littauer’s network of providers while maintaining and improving the quality of its services. Emily believes in fostering coordinated care within the network, ensuring efficient and complete patient-focused care. “One of the reasons I became a nurse was to become a leader,” Emily shared. “You see many great nurses who excel in patient care and bedside manner, but I wanted to be a trailblazer in understanding and leading the business behind the care. I strive to give our staff the knowledge and support they need to succeed and break down barriers.”

Emily is eager to connect with the Nathan Littauer team and the communities we serve. She emphasizes her commitment to working closely with the Littauer team to achieve the best patient outcomes. “Together, we can get the boat rowing in the same direction,” she said.

Under Emily’s leadership, we have a great opportunity to increase access and improve the quality of the care we provide. There was a highly competitive interview process to fill this role, and Emily stood out because of her experience, her clinical background, and her understanding of how to position our providers for success in the future. In her short time at Nathan Littauer, Emily is already making positive changes and fitting in well.
