O.C Chamber of Commerce, August Business of the Month: Reynolds GMC

Reynolds GM-Subaru was started in 1938 by C.A. (Jack) and Chester Reynolds in 1938 as a service station on the current site of Wayne Modena’s State Farm Insurance. Later, Reynolds moved across the street to the current site of the McDonald’s on Madison Road. After World War II where both Chester and Roy Reynolds served with distinction, Reynolds gained the Pontiac franchise and moved to their current location on Madison Road where Chester and Roy oversaw expansion of the business to include gaining the Cadillac, Buick, and GMC franchises through the 50’s and 60’s. During the 60’s and 70’s, Reynolds added a full-service body shop and multiple buildings comprising most of the modern footprint you see today. Expansion during the 80’s, and 90’s under the leadership of Kevin Reynolds, Sr. and Tom Reynolds included adding an expanded body shop on Woodmark Street and the Subaru franchise. Today, the dealership is a franchised Chevrolet, Cadillac, GMC, Buick, and Subaru store and is owned by Kevin Reynolds, Sr., John Reynolds, and Kevin Reynolds, Jr. They currently employ over 60 people and contribute to the local economy and local charities with equal fervor.

Orange County Chamber of Commerce – June Business of the Month: Dogwood Village

 Dogwood Village was presented with the Chamber’s June Business of the Month award on Thursday, May 27th.

Dogwood Village has accomplished an amazing task since March of 2020 as residents have remained COVID-19 free throughout the pandemic. As you can imagine, this was not an easy task while the county positivity rate climbed higher and higher and healthcare facilities were reporting new cases daily near the facility. As we were facing many challenges with obtaining PPE, hand sanitizer, and cleaning products we knew that we could not fall victim to this horrible disease. We quickly found ways to get what we needed and educated staff on protecting themselves and the residents. Screening, testing, and travel restrictions were initiated, and staff worked diligently to keep the residents safe.
 

As the information was shared about COVID-19 restrictions in long-term care and assisted living facilities, the community began offering support to both residents and staff. We were blessed with many generous contributions of food, face masks, cards, letters and hand sanitizer. Family members, residents and staff were made aware of CMS, CDC and VDH recommendations as everyone worked together to keep the facility COVID-19 free. Residents were reassured as they were able to communicate with family and friends with window visits, facetime as well as visitation booths despite the restrictions.

Throughout the pandemic, staff and residents were provided education on appropriate infection control practices to include social distancing, appropriate PPE and hand sanitizing as well as the importance of daily screening. Testing for COVID-19 was instrumental in identifying any individual who could have possibly been exposed to the virus. Weekly meetings were held to collaborate on matters as changes were made in the protocol for healthcare facilities. All departments worked together to assure that residents were not only safe but that their physical and emotional needs were a priority. Compassionate care visits were offered for those residents who were nearing the end of life as well as those who were struggling with emotional distress related to the lack of family support and recent losses.
   

The teamwork has been truly amazing as well as the dedication by staff to stay well in order to care for the residents. We are blessed to have leadership who went the extra mile to obtain needed resources needed to combat this disease. Thankfully, visitation has been reinstated allowing family and friends to visit residents both indoors and outside. The vaccine has also given us hope for normalcy once again. We all pray that our residents and staff stay well as we remain diligent with our efforts to keep our residents COVID-19 free.
    

Dogwood Village Health and Rehabilitation was selected as one of America’s best nursing homes for 2021 by Newsweek and global data research firm Statista. The rankings identified the top 400 facilities across 20 states. Dogwood was ranked in the top 10 facilities for Virginia and is one of the 7 percent of the facilities in the state where residents remain COVID-19 free.120 Dogwood Lane,Orange, VA 22960(540) 672-2611
