Nursing Employer of the Year by The Mississippi Nurses’ Assocation A Note From Pam Huffman: Dear Camellians, as we enter into the new year, we need to look back and reflect on all the changes we made in 2014. As a company we have made many changes especially in the 4th Quarter. These changes will assist us in aligning our company to our 2015 strategies as well as setting Camellia apart from our competitors. Everyone knows what is expected of them to meet these strategies, our metrics are in place and we are ready to make history and excel the National Benchmarks for Home Health and Hospice. It all starts with YOU! It is a team effort and approach to be successful. I want to thank each of you ahead of time for a very successful 2015.
