InQuicker Online Check-In
Non-ennergent EMERGENCY patients can now
wait at HOME rather than in the ED waiting area.
InQuicker Online Check-In allows non-emergent
patients to sign in through our website and wait at
home rather than come straight to the Emergency
Department.
The new service can be found at:
www.CarteretHealth.org and www.CarteretER.org.

have listened to
our patients and
are adding services
to improve their
quality care.

New PKA Administrator Rachel
Hardesty—P/?ofo byAmry Cox
PKA News
ByAmry Cox
New PKA administrator and box address
Effective January 1,2017, Rachel Hardesty
will come aboard as Pine Knoll Associations
new administrator. She and her husband,
John, have been a part of the community and
area since 1989, and their children went to
elementary and high schools in Morehead
City. Rachel grew up in Beaufort and is related
to the Davis and Lewis families, which are
well-recognized local families. In fact, family
lore tells of Rachels grandmother working
with the Roosevelts years ago when they
owned property and maintained a residence
here. The Roosevelts would send a driver to
pick up Rachel’s grandmother when they came
down and were in residence on the island.
Island life has been an important influence
on the whole Hardesty family They all enjoy activities on and around the water and
being outdoors. The grown Hardesty sons still surf and work on the water, either
in this area or on the Gulf. Rachel and John are enjoying their first grandchild and
their roles as grandparents.
Rachel finds Pine Knoll Shores to be a special place and loves living here. For
27 years the Hardestys have felt this is a real community where people know each
other and are very friendly. Like most of us, they may not know everybody’s name,
but recognize people as they walk their dog, bicycle around or drive by Both Rachel
and John have worked together to create painted furniture and beachy decor—so
they have an innovative and creative side, too.
Rachel has been doing similar duties and responsibilities in previous work
experiences and brings many skills to our HOA. She went to Barton College
in Wilson, and has worked with another local HOA, plus has decades of work
experiences to develop a broad skill set in accounts receivables, accounts payable,
customer service, problem solving and customer follow-up and follow-through. She
is excited about the challenges of working with our HOA—and having possibly the
best commute of her life so far. Please note that the new location of the PKA box is
104 Pecan Court.
A special thank you and recognition of dedicated service is extended to Cindy
Schersching as our previous PKA administrator. Cindy joins an impressive group
of folks such as Kathy Kimmel, Paulette Murphy, Robin Barnes and a host of
others who have been an active part and contributed to the legacy of Pine Knoll
Association.
