Leigh Ellen has managed our PCA Huntsville area pharmacy since its inception in 2007. After eleven years at one location, the Huntsville-area pharmacy moved in November of 2018 to Athens, Alabama to better serve our customers. Because of Leigh Ellen’s unique ability to manage and direct her staff, the move was seamless with no interruption of services. In fact, most customers never knew the physical location changed unless we told them! Leigh Ellen sees to all new services with a charm and grace that keep customers happy.

Jennifer was one of our first PCA associates and is always available for our customers and their families’ needs and concerns. She was already well versed in pharmacy billing and fulfillment when she began her career at PCA, and that knowledge base has broadened exponentially. Ready to assist with any billing difficulty, Jennifer is our “super user” of the various interfacing computer software programs required to efficiently run pharmacy services. She continues to actively participate in national conferences for pharmacy technology, and is passionate about its efficient use to better serve our residents and facility staff. Quick to step away from her busy day, she helps resolve any issues that arise for customers and co-workers alike, and is also our go-to person for internal computer software issues.

Since joining PCA in 2000, Kim has worked diligently to ensure PCA has the best available aspects of Human Resources employment practices and the most service-oriented associates. As both on-boarding and training progress and an associate leaves the classroom, she maintains close contact with their direct supervisor, guaranteeing a smooth transition. Associate relations are where Kim outshines all others in her position. Her door, rather than always being open, is open when needed and closed whenever an associate needs a moment of privacy with her. Kim’s innate ability to connect on a personal level with our associates has fostered a family atmosphere that works! Additionally, she manages payroll, compensation and all benefits, so that PCA associates keep an affordable, up to date benefit package. If all that weren’t enough, Kim also pulls extra duty at conferences and tradeshows, her winning personality cementing relationships with current and potential customers.
