Holiday Open House At Pine Meadows

My aunt has been here for a couple of years now. Each time we visit her she is in such an excellent frame of mind. They have activities like "prom" & special snacks. Also, the new director Amanda Kennedy has been a positive addition to the already stellar team!

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.

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.

Della Ward stated that she was admitted to Pine Meadows for therapy because the facility was close to her home after a recent hospitalization. She said the staff here is kind and helpful. She really enjoys the food here and her overall stay has been pleasant as well.

The reason I chose this center for my loved one Glendora, is that I was impressed with the staff and facility. Catherine M. stood out to me; she is an outstanding team member and loved by my mother and our family. It has been a great experience. The staff is awesome.

Dear Glenda, Thank you for all that your and your staff did for Marianne. Thank you for helping me by making her funeral arrangements. I appreciate everything you did. I know she had great care at Pine Meadows. She will be missed.

Not only do I work at Pine Meadows, my family and I recently had the opportunity to discuss whether to possibly admit one of our family members with terminal illnesses. The staff here is amazing, caring, and go above and beyond; not just for our work family, but for anyone in need of our services. Jan, Connie, Amanda, and Erica. Ladies, you will forever hold a special place in our hearts. My work family from Cooperate on down, we appreciate every act of kindness, the prayers, and Erica Parker you're one in a million. Thanks for being there for my sister in law and staying till we got there. I'm truly thankful for my work family.

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."

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!
