Spotlight of the Month: Amanda Smith, PTA. Amanda was born and raised in Birchwood/Harrison, TN, where she currently resides with her Husband, BJ, son, Owen Wade, along with 2 dogs, Stroker Ace and Stella, 2 Cats, Casper and Matilda, and 7 Chickens. One of Amanda's life goals was to choose the right profession, and that she did. She has been a PTA for 18 years, and has been with our company, Amedisys Home Health, for 15 of those years, this coming October. Her grandfather is the one who inspired her to pursue a career in Physical Therapy. When asked what she likes most about your job, Amanda would say she loves the one-on-one time with patients and the flexibility Home Health offers her, especially when it comes to being able to spend time with her son and his ball games. One of Amanda's other life goals is to live with a purpose, and it shows in everything she does. In Amanda's off time from work, she enjoys swimming, bowling, and karaoke. If you ask anyone of Amanda's coworkers, they best describe her as caring, dedicated, honest, a great genuine personality.
