The Scotland County Hospital (SCH) Employee Committee in Memphis recognized employees for their years of service with the organization and awarded service pins this month during National Hospital Week.
There are several employees at SCH that have been loyal to the organization for multiple decades and received service pins this year. At the top of that list, working 40 years is Tammy Newland (Business Office) and Brenda Prather (Administrative Assistant) with 35 years of service.
Tammy Newland is a native of Downing and began her career with the hospital in 1980 in the Patient Accounts Department. She then moved into the position of Personnel Assistant and Payroll Clerk. In 1988 she assumed the position she currently holds as Accounting Supervisor. In this position she oversees Accounts Payable, General Ledger entries, Pay Roll, and assists with Human Resources as it relates to these areas. Tammy and her husband, Rodney, live in Downing and they have 2 children, 4 grandchildren and one great grandchild.
Brenda Prather, a native of Scotland County, started her career with the organization in September of 1970. She left the organization for a few years to raise her children and returned in November of 1985. In the 90’s she worked as an Administrative Assistant role with the CEO and Board of Directors, along with becoming the Lifeline Program Manager about that same time. She continues in those roles. Although Brenda joined the organization in 1970, her continuous length of service is calculated from 1985. Brenda and her husband, Stan, live on the family farm west of Memphis and have 2 children and 2 grandchildren.
The Employee Committee recognizes employees, annually, with service pins in five year increments. Other employees receiving pins this year include: 25 year pins – Barbie Courtright, Dena Schmitter, Jeanne Parrish, Angela Hawes & Jasetia Buckallew; 20 year pins – Sheryl Templeton, Jenny Mallett, Carla Cook & Alison Closser; 15 year pins – Paul Reynolds, Chrissie Burkhiser & Krissy Siegfried; and 10 year pins – Charlotte Stelter, Rhonda Miller, Kendi Bradley, Brandi Glass & Robin Seppelt; 5 year pins – Dr. Shane Wilson, Sherrie Peterson, Samantha Murphy, Elizabeth Guffey, Will Brauns, Matt Wickert, Angie Johnston, Alison Woods, Amy Brown, Jessica Christen, Barbara Dunnett & Michael Buford.
The Hospital is in its 50th year of providing healthcare services in the community and opened its doors on July 20, 1970. Officials from the Scotland County Care Center and the Scotland County Hospital & Clinics are making plans for their combined 50th anniversary celebrations on July 2, 2020, if COVID restrictions are lifted.
A 50th Anniversary commemorative cookbook is available for purchase at the Care Center and Hospital for $12 each or can be mailed for $16 each.
