Congratulations, Marissa Pettis with NHC Healthcare!
|
I was born in Port Charlotte FL, but grew up in Rockvale, TN. I'm a huge geek. I play many types of games and read lots of books. I am a blessed mom of two dogs, Hershey and Obi Wan.
I enjoy arts and crafts like making my own glass mosaics and painting.
I've lived in Tullahoma for the past five years and it's been wonderful so far!
My favorite thing about Tullahoma is that it's big enough to feel like a city but small enough to still have the small town feel of a kind and caring community.
NHC of Tullahoma provides a wide array of therapeutic rehabilitative and continuing care services. We offer Skilled Nursing, Hospice Care, Rehabilitative services, and Long-term care. I have been working at NHC of Tullahoma since March of 2016.
I am the Health Information Management Assistant for NHC. I manage all of the medical records of all active and past residents. I think of my position as a big puzzle with paperwork which is why I love it so much.
One thing that people may not know about my job is the joy it brings to all of us when a patient starts to recover, when they can take that first step again, or start to cook their own meals... it's truly a blessing to work at NHC of Tullahoma.
My favorite Chamber program is the Ambassadors. I truly enjoy the Ambassador meetings every month. This group is incredible, caring, and we have so many creative minds getting together. It has taught me a lot already and is helping me understand more about businesses in Tullahoma and more about the Chamber.
The best advice I've ever been given is to be honest and true to who I am.
Everyone is different and everyone has a different story. Be humble.
If I had to give advice to other young professionals it would be:
"To believe in yourself even in the toughest moments... believe that you can reach your goals."
