In the spotlight: Brittany Gladbach

Manor of the Plains has hired Brittany Gladbach as the new director of sales and marketing.

“I have always enjoyed interacting with seniors, and I knew at a point in time I would be working in some capacity with them. I love the opportunity to learn from those who enjoy sharing their stories and knowledge they have to offer, and in return taking their advice to live out in my own personal life,” said Brittany. “At Manor of the Plains, I look forward to continuing our mission of providing quality services while guided by Christian values for those throughout the region, as residents make their transitions to the variety levels of care that we offer.”

Brittany spent the last five years in a variety of sales and marketing roles in both the medical and manufacturing industries. She was the member services/events coordinator for the Farmington Chamber of Commerce, a sales/marketing representative for MOCAP and a field clinical application specialist at Veran Medical Technologies.

“We’re excited to have Brittany join our team and lead our marketing efforts among the Dodge City community, our residents, their families and our staff. She has great enthusiasm, business sense and people skills that makes her a great fit as we work to carry out our mission,” said John Van Hook, executive director of Manor of the Plains.

Even though life on our campus is a little different than usual, Brittany is feeling right at home ever since she started her new position at the end of June.

“I enjoy being able to walk into a community where you are able to tell everyone is happy to be here, even with a mask covering his or her smile. Everyone has welcomed me with open arms and answers to any question I have, even the silly ones. I have been fortunate to have both coworkers and residents who are so welcoming, especially after having some big shoes to fill,” said Brittany.

Originally from Farmington, Missouri, Brittany moved to Dodge City in May with her fiancé, Joe, who recently accepted a position in the athletic department at Dodge City Community College. The couple has a “fur baby” named Harper.

“We can’t wait to become part of the Dodge City community,” said Brittany.
