Mrs. Verhoff was one of nearly 800 employees company-wide who did not miss a day of work and was not tardy from January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011.  For this achievement, Mrs. Verhoff and the other eligible employees were entered into a drawing for one of two rewards valued at $2,500 or $1,000.  Mrs. Verhoff was the recipient of the $2,500 reward. 

The drawing was held via conference call at the Trilogy Health Services Home Office in Louisville, Kentucky.  Following the drawing, Randy Bufford, Trilogy President/CEO commented, “We are thrilled to have employees like Barbara Verhoff on the Trilogy Team.  Her commitment to the residents of The Meadows of Kalida and to her coworkers is outstanding.  She truly embodies the Trilogy spirit.”

“Barbara is such a great nurse and she has been with our campus for a number of years,” said Kevin Kidd, Executive Director of The Meadows of Kalida. “She always puts our residents first. We are thrilled that she received this recognition.”

“I was unbelievably surprised to I hear I won the $2500 prize. I was ecstatic,” commented Mrs. Verhoff. “I haven't won too many things in my life so it hit me like a rocket.

We are extremely grateful to Trilogy.”  Mrs. Verhoff has worked at The Meadows of Kalida since 2008.
