Daneille Rager, a state tested nurse aide at Altercare Adena, has been selected by the Ohio Health Care Association as its “Hero of Long-Term Care” for February. OHCA honors one long-term care employee each month for their service to long-term caregivers, residents and the community.

“Danielle has that caring heart that our residents deserve and expect, and goes above and beyond to make sure they have everything they need,” George said. “Danielle treats them as they are family …. she is truly an asset to Altercare Adena, and we are proud to have her on our team.”

Rager has been with Altercare for more than 10 years, working as a restorative and mentor STNA and also doing the central supply ordering and inventory. She was recently selected to be a mentor aide.

She is currently enrolled in school to become a registered nurse.

“Danielle was nominated because she represents the best of Altercare Adena. She is truly our ‘Hero of Long-Term Care,'” George said.

Altercare Adena started as foundation as a family-run care organization more than four decades ago. For more than 45 years, Altercare has specialized in providing short-term rehabilitation, long-term nursing care and senior living. The facility is located at 213 U.S. Route 250, Adena.
