We are happy to announce the hiring of our new, full-time Occupational Therapist, Meredith Ann Lee, OTD OTR L. She serves at Shearer Richardson Nursing Home in Okolona, MS.
Meredith received her Bachelor of Kinesiology from Mississippi State University and her Doctorate in Occupational Therapy from the University of Mississippi Medical Center. In addition, she is especially interested in neuro, ortho, and SCI populations. Meredith chose to pursue occupational therapy after her grandmother had a stroke when Meredith was in junior high. She watched the OT team work with her grandmother in her recovery. The impact OT made sparked an interest in Meredith. OT consistently brings life back to those who have suffered from an injury, diagnosis, or disorder, and Meredith enjoys seeing these patients progress to become the best versions of themselves. We know she is ready to take on the occupational therapy needs at Shearer-Richardson, and we look forward to seeing her patients’ recovery journeys.
Meredith is close to her family. They have been very involved throughout her life, schooling, and career. She enjoys playing and watching sports, being with friends in new cities, and exploring the outdoors during her free time.
Mid South Rehab values continuing education and promoting exceptional leaders. We are delighted to have Meredith as a partner. We look forward to many opportunities for her to further her education and specialize in certification and training.
We are thrilled to announce the hiring of full-time Office Manager Latrice Colyer, ROM. She serves at Pinnacle of Southaven.
Latrice received her undergraduate degree from Concorde Career College as a Medical Assistant and her Associate of Science Degree as a Medical Office and Billing Specialist from Ultimate Medical Academy. She graduated with a 3.5 GPA and a 3.9 GPA, respectively. In addition, she was on the Principal’s and Dean’s List and an active member of the National Honors Society. Within her field of study, her interests include the professions of patient access clerk, certified nursing aide, certified medical assistant, and medical receptionist.
Latrice has three children. She has been married to her God-fearing husband, Dexter, for twenty years.
Her oldest son, Brenden, is in the National Guard and will soon marry his high school sweetheart of 7
years. Her younger son, Keegan, is in his first year of college at Northeast. Her daughter, Amireona, is
a senior at Ripley High School. Latrice chose her field of study because she genuinely loved helping
people feel better and feels like this is her God-given talent. When not working, she loves spending time with family and traveling.
We are excited to have Latrice as a partner in our company. We look forward to many opportunities for her to progress in her new role. We know she will have opportunities to improve our company and our patients’ lives as Rehab Office Manager.
