Job Description Job Description About Company: How It All Began
The story of Roman Eagle Memorial Home, previously known as
Hilltop, is heartwarming – in part, because it is a success story
not only in medical progress, but more important, because it is a
story of vision, dedication, and service to our community. Roman
Eagle Memorial Home is a not-for-profit organization with a rich
tradition. Our long history of service to the Danville-Pittsylvania
County area dates back to 1918. On January 2, 1918, the State
Corporation Commission chartered the Anti-Tuberculosis League of
Danville, which served as the founding organization. Danville was
the first city in Virginia to declare war on tuberculosis and
establish its own sanatorium, named Hilltop. The Danville Kiwanis
Club supported Hilltop Sanatorium from its organization in the
1920’s. With advances in medical technology, there was no longer
the need to care for tuberculin patients. Through the efforts of
the Chamber of Commerce, led by President J. Blair Kerns, the
Anti-Tuberculosis Sanatorium was converted into a nursing facility,
Hilltop Nursing Home in 1956. The existing facility was inadequate
to meet the growing need of the senior citizen population and new
construction was needed. Mrs. H. Smith Richardson, a native
Danvillian, assisted in providing funds for this new construction
from the Richardson Foundation. It was at this time that the Roman
Eagle Lodge, No. 122, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, accepted
sponsorship of the nursing facility. Their duty was to nominate the
forty-five members of the Board of Directors and from this Board
the Officers and Executive Committee, who were empowered to oversee
the facility. In 1961, the original charter was amended to change
the name from the Anti-Tuberculosis League of Danville to Roman
Eagle Memorial Home, Inc., previously known as Hilltop Nursing
Home. Roman Eagle Memorial Home’s original facility was constructed
in 1962 in front of the original structures, which were later
demolished, and the cornerstone laid on July 28, 1962. Since its
inception, Roman Eagle has undergone four expansions to its present
capacity of 312-beds. About the Role LPN Charge Nurse renders
