Port Huron, MI – Lake Huron Medical Center (LHMC) is pleased to announce its July 2021 Employee of the Month, Ashleigh Sprowl, RN. LHMC is honored to have a strong team of staff and volunteers working hard to deliver high-quality care to the Blue Water Area.

Ashleigh works as a Registered Nurse in the Med/Surge Department and has been an employee at LHMC since January 2015. She was nominated by a patient who commented, “Ashleigh is a very caring, loving RN who knows her job and does it beyond the job description. Because of Ashleigh’s quick action in calling code blue for me and getting me to CT scan and ICU I am alive today. I am a three-time stroke survivor now. I could not see or speak but Ashleigh had a hold of my left hand and promised she wouldn’t let go. She still had my hand in ICU and helped transfer me to their bed. Ashleigh will forever be in my heart. She is the most dedicated caring nurse I have ever had.” 

Lake Huron Medical Center is proud of each of its employees and volunteers; and extends a special thank you and congratulations to all our team members, especially Ashleigh, as we celebrate their accomplishments.

Meijer stores Have decided to add value to their teacher discount, and the retailer is adding office furniture and kids’ clothing to the items teachers can buy with their 15% off discount.

Teachers can use their discount, which is good all summer long, to save money on items for themselves and their families. The discount will help teachers create workspaces in their homes and outfit their own children with new school clothes.

May Graceffa, Director of Back-to-School Merchandising for Meijer, said, “Teachers proved to be heroes as they adapted lesson plans and extended the classroom into their homes during the pandemic. The upcoming school year may require flexibility, so finding a way to further reduce stress on their pocketbooks as they consider their own homes and families for the first day of classes led us to expand the offerings covered by this year’s discount.”

The teacher discount at Meijer stores already covered school supplies, cleaning supplies, tissues, and baby wipes, and teachers can apply for the discount program at their local Meijer store by presenting their current school ID at the service desk.

Local Meijer stores are in Ft. Gratiot and Marysville.
