Whew! Lot's of Trips

October has been full of lots of trips. But they are finally over. They have been excellent and very rewarding. The last trip was to a Learning Session for our new IHI IMPACT Team: the Cheraw office team. I think they did an extraordinary amount of work and found the Learning Session to be quite interesting. I think they also realized that CareSouth is a leader in many ways and they had a lot about which to be proud! No matter how many times I participate in a Learning Session, I always learn something new and stimulating. This time I learned some very interesting things about Teamwork and Change. I will be sharing this at the November 18th Staff meeting! See you there!

CareSouth Carolina News

Holidays are just around the corner!!! Don't forget Halloween! I (along with my trusty team mates) will be doing site visits, costume and site awards, and of, course, candy!! Have fun! See you all soon!

An Update (finally!)

It sure has been a long hot summer! And a long, discouraging one for me. It became to hot and dismal that I had to stop all of my work with debris removal and fence repair. And I have made no progress in negotiations with my insurance company. So things have been pretty depressing. But, now, there's good news to share!! I have been approved for a government Disaster Assistance Loan! This will allow me to get started on a house, continue with debris removal, and keep working on the insurance company! Yippee!!! This has sure been a horrible experience. I can't tell you all how much I have appreciated your help, your caring, and just being there as all of this progressed. I'm hoping that when the one year anniversary rolls around (March 15th), there will be considerable progress and improvement!! That's not that far away! Thank you all again!
