​Good afternoon!
My name is Joshua Chronister, and I’m excited to introduce myself as the new Marketing Coordinator for Cloverdale Rehab and Nursing! 
First and foremost, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to each and every member of our incredible staff — your dedication and compassion are the foundation of everything we do. I’d also like to express sincere gratitude to the families of our wonderful residents. Your continued support means the world to us!
As you may have noticed, our website presence hasn’t been as active as we’d like in recent times. That’s something I’m eager to change starting today! In the near future, we’ll be more active and will soon be launching Employee and Resident spotlights to celebrate all of the amazing individuals who make up the Cloverdale family! Whether you're near or far, we want you to feel connected and involved in the life of our community! For now, please feel free to scroll through and enjoy some of our blasts from the past!
Thank you for being a part of the Cloverdale family — I’m looking forward to sharing more with you soon!
Warm regards,
Joshua Chronister
Marketing Coordinator

As our community prepares for the 2018-2019 school year, this brings heartache for those in need. Our residents and staff hope that this donation of school supplies will help brighten a family’s day and keep a child motivated to excel in their education. Pictured is our resident council president, Linda Davies, with our activity director, Andrea Hyatt.

We had a great time participating in our community's event, Jackson County Jubilee. There were great vendors, activities for children, book signing, BINGO, and so much more. We look forward to more fun events.

Justin’s education includes Sylvania High School where he graduated in 2010, Northeast Alabama Community College for basic classes, and Wallace State Community College where he completed his degree of Associates in Applied Science in 2012.

Cloverdale Rehabilitation and Nursing Center is excited to participate in our county's local event, Jackson County Jubilee. Representatives of our facility will be set up at a booth with information about the services we offer and available to answer any questions someone may have while enjoying this great community event. 
We will also be hosting a bingo game for seniors at our booth at the top of every hour, beginning at 9 am, with the last game at 1 pm. One winner will receive a prize at each game. 
​We hope to see you there!

Being a nurse isn't just about giving medication and checking vital signs. It takes compassion to engage in a nursing career or to work in a nursing facility. 
When a resident said he'd like a rose bush he could see when he looked out his window, Miss Bridgette took it upon herself to purchase one. She planted this on her day off with someone for whom she cares.
We are all enjoying watching it grow, but nothing compares to the happiness she brought to our facility.

We are excited about the construction progress on our new therapy department.  Along with the newly renovated therapy suites, we will offer private dinning and a separate entrance for the patients and families that are here for a short-term stay.  We anticipate to be in full operational status by the first of July, and we look forward to be able to better serve our community.
