Deanna, well known around HCH as Dee, has been with Harrison County Hospital on and off for twenty-plus years. As a Physical Therapy Assistant in the Rehabilitation & Therapy Services department, Deanna helps return patients to their prior level of function if possible, and helps maximize her patientsโ functional independence.
When we asked Deanna what is her favorite part of her career is, she had this to say, โI love meeting patients and their families and them sharing their stories with me. You can really learn a lot from other people, especially the elderly community. I also really love working with my co-workers. It is more like a family than work. We have a great department and look out for one another. If a co-worker has an emergency, we all work together to cover what needs to be done with no judgment, just concern. We also enjoy celebrating birthdays and other achievements.โ

My patients. I love hearing about their childhoods and life experiences, and also working in a small rural hospital. You always meet someone who knows someone you know. Again, almost like family!
When Deanna isnโt helping patients at HCH, she enjoys going to her church and just helping people in any way she can. Deanna loves to cook for large groups of people. She was also lucky enough to marry her high school sweetheart!
Deanna - Thank you for your dedication and the care you put into your work!
