During the 2011-2012 year, Quality of Life leaders with Signature HealthCARE were encouraged and inspired by Dianne Timmering to focus on each of our residents individually. The initiative was to give a “Purpose for Every Resident” and to renew joy and self-esteem into their lives once again. At Donelson Place Care & Rehabilitation Center in Nashville, TN we are doing just that – establishing pride, self-worth, and giving back to the community at the same time. We recently started our Donelson Angels Club and kickstarted our service projects at the Nashville Rescue Mission. Many of our residents wanted to visit and help at the women and children’s campus. Our ladies, along with Chaplain John Barnes and Quality of Life Director Casey Caulk, assisted in food preparation at the soup kitchen. This wasn’t just your typical day inside the facility, but gave our residents a chance to give back, network into the community, and made them feel important and needed. The Donelson Angels have plans to do a monthly service project and are currently on the waiting list to volunteer at the Humane Society. The also have hopes to read to children at the children’s shelter.

I love this program! What an awesome way to help the community and at the same time give hope and purpose to our precious people at Donelson Place Care & Rehab. Thanks to Ouality of Life Dirrector Casey Caulk, Chaplain John Barnes and the Donelson team for their innovative approach of taking the Donelson Place community to the Nashville community. I can only imagine the sense of pride and purpose the Donelson Place community team feels as they give back. I look forward to hearing how this iniative continues. God bless.
