Kimberly Pettigrew, MHA/MSL is the Owner and Director of At Home Eldercare of Winston-Salem, an in-home aide agency servicing seniors in Winston-Salem and surrounding areas. Kimberly is a graduate of Salem College where she received a BS in Business Administration and Pfeiffer University where she received her Masters in Health Administration and a Masters of Science in Leadership.
After graduation, Kimberly began her career working in Third Party managed care with organizations such as Medcost, LLC, Blue Cross Blue Shield of NC , and the United States Peace Corp Benefits Division where she excelled in claims review and processing, benefits administration, and personnel management for over 10 years.
Kimberly’s passion for home care comes from her work with third party managed care. Assisting her clients, especially our older population, with understanding their health benefits, what was available to them and how to determine what would be best for them based on their healthcare needs and then seeing her family members transition to the stage of wanting to age at home, maintain their dignity, and have companionship through it all, reinforced her desire to want to be a part of her community and assist those that have done so much for us.
Kimberly is also extremely active in the her community. She was raised on the philosophy that it takes a village and continues to put this into practice. She has volunteered with organizations such as Boy Scouts of America, Stop Child Abuse Now (Exchange/SCAN), Big Brothers/Big Sisters, Second Harvest Food Bank, The Salvation Army, and Christmas for the Community in partnership with Love Out Loud.
Professionally, Kimberly is also a member of ACHE (American College of Healthcare Executives), TRLA (Triad Retirement Living Association), and HIPSS (Healthcare Professionals Serving Seniors).
With all of this you would think Kimberly is busy enough, well she isn’t. Kimberly is also the mother of 2 young men, one currently serving in the U.S. Navy and an active 11 year old.
