I founded Fairchild Grants and Consulting to help skilled nursing communities — and the organizations that support them — capture the grant funding that strengthens resident life, training, and the workforce behind their mission — without drowning in the paperwork.
Fairchild Grants and Consulting provides grant writing and funding strategy support to skilled nursing facilities, healthcare organizations, and mission-driven providers. We focus on the full lifecycle of a Civil Money Penalty grant: identifying the right opportunities, building the narrative and budget, gathering the documentation reviewers expect, submitting on time, and following through on every reporting obligation after the award.
Over the course of my career I have overseen the formation, submission, and approval of more than 20 grant applications across the skilled nursing space. That history means a new engagement does not start from a blank page — the templates, instincts, and institutional knowledge to move quickly are already in place.
Strong applications come from knowing what funders actually want to fund, and that requires sustained contact with the people running the programs. I maintain active working relationships with key contacts in more than 20 state CMP grant programs, and earlier this year I traveled to the DHHS CMPRP offices in Baltimore to discuss current and upcoming grant priorities and to build relationships with Director David Wright and his CMPRP team. That continuity benefits every client engagement.
My practice is built around three simple principles — clarity in every proposal, discipline on every deadline and attachment, and genuine partnership with the teams I serve. I work as an extension of your staff, with regular check-ins and full transparency on hours and progress. The goal is for grant funding to feel less like a burden and more like a steady, well-run part of how your communities grow.
