    Please tell us something interesting about yourself:

    “My husband (Bob Davis) and I established the Dexter Inn in the mid-1980’s, Prior to this, I was the assistant bookkeeper at Medler-Davis Chevrolet.  At the Dexter Inn, I was the desk clerk and bookkeeper.  I went to a school in Memphis to learn how to operate a hotel and what supplies to buy.  There was a storm in Dexter the first week we were in business and the hotel was unexpectedly full of repairmen.  So, we had quite the initiation into the world of hotel management.“.

    What made you choose our agency to provide your home health care?

    “I first had therapy as an outpatient at the Dexter hospital, and changed to home-health therapy so I didn’t have to leave my home.  On my second round of home-health therapy, I said I would never choose anybody but Southeast Home Health of Dexter for my my care.”

    What do you enjoy most about home health therapy?

    “I have very understanding therapists and nurses and could not have gotten better care anywhere.”

    Please share some of the goals you have for the future and how therapy might help you reach those goals:

    “I want to be as active as I can with my children who live in Dexter, along with my grandchildren and great-grandchildren.”

    Please tell us something interesting about yourself: 
    When I was a little boy, I was short and some older boys lived down the alley from me.  When I'd come to play with them, I would hop and skip down the alley.  The older boys said I looked like a grasshopper, and the nickname stuck while I was young.  When I got older, the nickname became "Grassy".

    What made you choose our agency to provide your home health care?
    I have heard a lot of good things about Southeast and Southeast Home Health from people in our community.

    What do you enjoy most about home health therapy?
    I enjoy the companionship of having someone concerned with my problems, and having them want to help improve my current situation.

    Please share some of the goals you have for the future and how therapy might help you reach those goals:
    My goal is to get rid of the walker.  I want to increase my confidence with walking around without the fear of falling.  I also want to regain my independence and be able to once again drive myself around the community.

    S.E. Home Health Hosted Lunch & Learn at Senior Center
    Dexter, Missouri – Southeast Home Health of Dexter hosted the first of a monthly series of informational and educational events at the Dexter Senior Center recently.  On the first Wednesday of each month they will present a wonderful program geared towards seniors in our community.

    “Our first program was an overview of the services offered by Southeast Home Health,” commented Krystal McGowan, Physical Therapy Assistant.  “We had a great time and introduced all of our staff as well as handed out brochures and of course everyone loved the door prizes.”

    “There were 54 seniors present,” continued McGowan.  “We gave them an overview of our skilled nursing program, physical therapy program, home health aide, speech pathology, occupational therapy, and nutritional counseling, all the services we offer.” 

    Southeast Home Health of Dexter is a service provided to local people who have a medical need that may require the skills of a nurse or a therapist.  Most patients who utilize this service have been recently discharged from a hospital or have had a change in their medical condition.

    Many of the services that are provided by Southeast Home Health are covered by Medicare, Medicaid, private health insurance, VA Insurance, automobile insurance and even Worker’s Compensation Insurance. 

    On Wednesday, April 1st at 11:45 a.m. Southeast Home Health staff will return to the Dexter Senior Center to give a program on "Fall Risks and Home Safety".

    Southeast Home Health is located at 1300 North One Mile Road, Suite 7 in Dexter behind the hospital near the emergency room parking lot and if you would like more information contact them at 573-624-3511.
