April Resident of the Month
April 26, 2023
Salem Woods is excited to introduce one of our residents who has really made an impact on all of us, Mary Jennings!
Mary loves it here at Salem Woods and attributes that to the friendly staff that welcomed her instantly. When she first came to our skilled nursing facility years ago, our Housekeeping Supervisor, Heather, helped her adjust to her new living space. After that, she met staff members, Lindsay, Savannah, Brittany, Molly, Cassie and Eve, who made her feel loved and heard. She says she loves the way our team treats her and that they make her feel more than just a resident. She couldn't forget to make a shout-out to Angel, who keeps her room sparkling clean, just the way she likes it. Mary also thinks the kitchen does a wonderful job and shared that the food is always served hot!

Mary has always been someone motivated by her goals. In the early 90s, she was the first female to put out over 10,000 VCR tapes into video treasures! Now, her goal is to be able to walk again. Physical therapy has been working alongside Mary to help her on the road to recovery. She says they help her feel like a brand-new person! Mary has progressed very well since she's been here with us and is now able to get out of bed with ease. They are working on leg strength, and Mary is still driven to walk again. We know that Mary will reach her goal!
Mary was married for 25 years and has six kids, four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Her hobbies include Bingo, shopping and all the activities here at Salem Woods. She never misses an activity! Growing up, Mary used to babysit and was a deli worker. She loved doing anything in customer service.
Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your life, Mary! Congratulations on Salem Woods' April Resident of the Month award!
