Mo has a heart for those that come to the facility to seek help and aims to make their stay as comfortable as possible.  She caters to the clients' needs and wants by taking meal suggestions, understanding everyone's favorites/dislikes, making birthday's specials, and interacting with each person to spread her positive energy.  Her attitude, kindness, and deep love for our clients and staff are displayed daily in her delicious home cooked meals each day.

Cathy is passionate about working in addiction as multiple of her family members struggled with addiction issues, one of which was able to find recovery through Country Road’s program.

Cathy works a 12-step program for family members of alcoholics herself and believes it is just as important for the loved ones of those struggling with addiction to be mentally and emotionally healthy as it is for their loved ones seeking recovery. It’s her goal to make sure both the client and their family are feeling safe and secure during their admissions process and upon their arrival. When family drops their loved one off, she answers any questions they have to help them feel at ease before leaving their loved one in our hands. She was in their position once and  understands how difficult and scary it may be to trust strangers with your loved one, but she ensures them that their loved one will be safe and cared for while here with us.
