Butler Medicalodge April employee spotlight of the month

Congratulations to Butler Medicalodge April employee spotlight of the month, Mary Greenwood. Mary is our HR manager, she is also our Jill Of All Trades!

She has been the Business Office Manager, staffing coordinator, CNA and transportation aide. Mary has been with the Medicalodges family for 14 ½ years.

She chose to work at the Lodge because she loves working with residents. The staff and residents are like a second family to her.

Mary loves reading, gardening, photography and scrapbooking. She is an open book, there is not much we don't know about her, but one thing we may not know is that she was the first born grandchild named after her Grandpa and Grandma “Mary Larverne”. Her Grandpa had her on a horse by herself at the age of 2 ½ .

A word of advice that she would give to her fellow coworkers is:
"when the stress gets to you ,take a breath and give it to God!’

P.S. Mary will be saying goodbye to her Lodge family at the end of this month! She will definitely be missed by all! Medicalodges of Butler appreciates all that you have done “Myrtle”, so congrats and wishing you the best of luck!
