BRYMER Staff Writer Teresa Childers is running into a lot of old friends at her new job. Childers, a reg- istered nurse, is the new director of resi- dent services at Summit Place, an assisted living community. Childers, a lifelong Kings Mountain res- ident, knows some of the residents and is getting to know the rest. Some are friends of her family, others she met while work- ing for Total Care Home Health Agency. It was while seeing Total Care clients at Summit Place that Childers learned of the job. The visiting nurse stopped by admin- istrator Kristi Anthony's office looking for the director of resident services. The previous director had recently left for a job in Shelby. Anthony was looking for a replacement. Knowing the quality of Childers’ work, Anthony asked * ‘do you want to work here?” Surprised by the offer, Childers thought it over for a week, talked again to Anthony and then took the position. At Summit Place, Childers supervises the nursing staff, insures lab work is scheduled and prescriptions are correct. She keeps residents’ families informed and meets potential residents. Her work ANDIE BRYMER / HERALD Dot Hayes (left), Teresa Childers and Dorothy Proffitt visit. Childers is the new director of patient services at Summit Place. Good friends New Summit Place nurse no stranger to residents involves the assisted living Community and The Parks, a total care unit. Childers likes the way Summit Place residents stay connected with the outside world. The community is wired for the internet and has a computer lab. Residents often participate in activities at the Patrick Senior Center and take other day trips. “I already told my husband we're going to sign up,” she says. “They make your bed, wash your clothes and fix you three meals a day.” Childers had two children when she began studying to be a nurse. A friend who was also a stay at home mom took a biology class at Gaston. The friend’s sto- ries from school fascinated Childers who then signed up at Gaston. She later transferred to Gardner Webb University. Graduating in 1995, her first job was in intensive care at Kings Mountain Hospital. After six years there, she moved on to home health. Childers and her husband Tony have three children, Morgan, Jordan and Reagan Ashley. Reagan Ashley, 8, is a fre- quent visitor at Summit Place. “She thinks of herself as the grandchild of every one of the residents,” Childers says.
