Rochester, NY-based St. John’s Home has appointed Dan Morphet vice president of skilled services. 

Morphet has 33 years’ experience in long-term care, having led operations at several other large New York facilities, most recently as administrator of Park Ridge Living Center in Rochester.


Morphet will oversee St. John’s skilled nursing operations, including Penfield’s Green House Homes and the main campus, which is home to 300 residents. He will also manage rehabilitation services and will be responsible for developing a non-medical model of long-term care. 

Morphet will be instrumental in the expansion of St. John’s services, such as the introduction of a chronic dialysis unit and pediatric skilled care, as part of the recently announced collaboration with University of Rochester Medical Center.

“Under Dan’s leadership, St. John’s will continue to advance its mission and evolve our services to provide the highest quality of care for our residents and their families,” President and CEO Charlie Runyon said.

Morphet’s other previous positions include senior administrator at Loretto Health and Rehabilitation in Syracuse, where he managed four facilities with a total of 1,846 residents and an annual operating budget of $180 million.

Morphet holds a bachelor of science in business administration and healthcare administration from Alfred University.

St. John’s serves nearly 1,000 older adults and families across its skilled, dementia care, transitional care, rehab and hospice units.
