Short Story Writing at Essex Center

Two Essex Center residents in Elizabethtown, New York, are writing short stories that have inspired fellow residents and staff. Mr. Terry Dupuis and Ms. Pamela Dadlow have created all kinds of stories, from love, and nature to drama. These stories come from Terry, who once wrote poetry, and got an unexpected awakening to write these stories after he took a bad fall at home in June 2020. Pamela writes and discusses his ideas and they make a great team.

Care. Support. Positive Outcomes. Centers Health Care.

Centers Health Care provides rehabilitation, skilled nursing and long-term care for people with a wide range of needs. Whether someone is recovering from surgery, managing an illness or simply needs more support than can be provided at home, our staff is there to help.

The goal is not exactly the same for everyone. It may be returning home, becoming stronger, staying independent or simply feeling better and more comfortable from one day to the next. There will be progress, setbacks and difficult days along the way. Our job is to be there through all of it, and to help each patient or resident get as far as he or she can.

Sometimes that progress comes in large steps. More often, it comes in small ones. Either way, every step matters.

Our Steps to Home series follows patients through rehabilitation and the journey from hospital to home:
