Peta Gay Hampton Coleman – Anna Grace Green Founder’s Award
The Anna Grace Green award was created to recognize Personal Care’s Founder, Anna Grace Green. This award is a result of compliments from clients, family members, and office staff. Peta Gay was the hands down winner this year. Her flexibility has always been one of the things that the staffing office has appreciated about Peta. She will start a new case with very little information and go anywhere on short notice. Peta works nights and wasn’t planning on coming to the banquet but we sweet talked her and she even bought a new outfit. Her pleasant demeanor makes her a very sought after caregiver.
