I Chose South Central Because They Put the Patient First.

Posted on July 24, 2023

Melissa Davis, RN, has been a member of the South Central Regional Medical Center family for five years. Melissa, who is a Wayne County native, works a Director of Nursing at ComfortCare Nursing Center. She began her career in long-term care 23 years ago. Melissa worked for many years as a LPN and went back to complete her RN degree.

“Nursing has been a lifelong dream for me,” said Melissa. “As a child, I dreamed of becoming a nurse. I love caring for people. As a nurse, especially working with the geriatric population, you have to have a compassionate heart. I encourage anyone that enjoys taking care of people to become a nurse.”

In long-term care, employees meet the needs of residents. Melissa states, “The most important thing in long-term care is to put the resident first. I chose to work for South Central because they put patient care first. They care about their staff and they care about the residents in their facilities. Whatever needs an employee or resident may have, the organization works to make sure that need is met. You do not find that everywhere.”

Our focus at South Central is to offer compassionate care. Melissa states, “I find joy in seeing our residents smile and our staff supporting them so they can thrive. When I came to South Central I could tell how patient driven the organization was. It was very impactful. I enjoy working for a health system that provides excellent care.”
