Congresswoman Lori Trahan visited Seven Hills Pediatric Center on Monday. She had a tour and the opportunity to meet some of the children that reside at the Center. In addition to meeting with Kathee Jordan, President and CEO of Seven Hills Foundation, and Bill Stock, VP of Government and Community Relations, she also had the chance to interact with Joe Allred, Sr. VP of Children’s Services and Holly Jarek, Interim Administrator, as well as other members of the pediatric center’s staff.  The visit gave those working at SHPC to thank the Congresswoman for all her support in Medicaid funding. During the visit it was noted that staffing was at its highest level in many years primarily because of that support.
