Relay for Life 2017

Connie, My father, Joe Cofer, my brother, Rick, and I are very thankful for the wonderful care both mom and dad received at Pine Meadows. Last Saturday, the actions of the nurses and staff were absolutely astounding. The love and support mom received during the last hours of her life will never be forgotten by our family. Dad made it through this time because of the comfort and concern of his Pine Meadows family. Thank you again.

I would recommend Pine Meadows to my family and friends. I love all my co-workers. I love our therapy department and our staff nurses; they treat residents like family.

I chose Pine Meadows Healthcare & Rehabilitation Center because I heard it was a good place.

Dear Glenda McCartney, Barbara Gammel, staff, and residents, I just wanted to thank you for the nice gift that you blessed me with at the Volunteer Banquet!! I can not believe what started as one person teaching Sunday School and Bible Study on Wednesday nights in 1981 has blossomed some three and a half decades later into an awesome ministry from First Baptist Church, Bolivar, TN. I am just so very thankful that God has allowed me to be a small part of this ministry. I love each and everyone! If I can be of any service to the residents or staff please feel free to call on me. Looking forward to many more years of service with "our family" at Pine Meadows. Much love to you all.

I want to thank all of you at Pine Meadows for the love and care extended to my mother, Bonnie Neill, during her stay there. She loved you all very much and as family. We will never forget your kindness. A very special thanks to "B" wing nurses and CNA's Physical therapy Dept. and all who worked as closely with her and gave her the positive encouragement she needed.

The reason I chose this center is that it was close to my family, I knew Ms. Connie P works here, and my sister Margo works here too! The entire staff is extremely good to me. They go above and beyond to take care of me. Sarah B (OT) is awesome, always goes above and beyond. I have been treated extremely nice by the entire staff! The A-Wing aides go above and beyond- very hard workers, especially Tonya, Beverley, Teresa, Sheronda, and Jennifer!

Some team members that really stood out for me were Beverly, Ricky, Christine, Sarah, and Theresa. They were very patient with me. I enjoyed my experience.

My name is Sarah Murphy. I chose Pine Meadows for myself. The reason I chose this center is because the facility if nice and close to home. Was there any specific team member or department that stood out and why? They all was great!!! Is there anything else you'd like to share about your experience with our center? May you all be Blessed in taking care of others. THANK YOU!

Barry Jones a resident at Pine Meadows wanted to share his experience here so far. He admitted to us after the nursing home he was in closed down. He stated he chose Pine Meadows because people in the community recommended him go here along with the staff at his other home. He also chose here because he has always lived in Bolivar. He mentioned a few departments that stood out along with a couple specific team members. The CNA's are friendly and the nurses are very dedicated professionals according to Mr.Jones. Mr.Barry provides a few specific CNA's and nurses that care for him daily.(Dorothy,Catherine,Carolyn,Lanette) Barbara and Margo from the activities department are very kind and inviting to help get me involved in activities says Mr.Jones. Dietary department provided food and snacks that make me feel more at home. He also mentions that Johnny Weems, social worker, went above and beyond by going out and getting him personal supplies when he first admitted. From the words of Mr.Jones, "I don't know what I would have done without his kindness. There are a few other comments that Mr.Barry provided during our conversation, "the food here is very good and tasty", and "staff is cooperative and helpful and willing to help me in any way possible."

I chose Pine Meadows because I like the staff and the way they do their jobs. I really like Carrie, the nurse in C hall. She is an amazing nurse; the therapy department was also great.
