R esident of the Month: Barbara Jean Stettnisch, “BJ”
The
March
wind roars like a
lion in the sky, and
makes us shiver as
he passes by. When
winds are soft, and
the days are warm and clear, just like a gentle lamb,
then spring is here. Author unknown.
March has finally arrived and our resident of
the month, Barbara Jean Stettnisch, “BJ”, is also
here and is a wonderful addition to our family.
BJ was born in Lakewood Hospital on May 12,
1926. She was an only child and had a wonderful
childhood. She was raised in the city Lakewood and
attended Lakewood schools. In 1944, BJ graduated
from Lakewood High. While in high school, she
babysat to earn money and was lucky enough
to meet and marry her high school sweetheart,
Robert.
After high school, Robert joined the Army and
BJ joined the Cadet Nursing Corp. for three years.
This program was created by congresswoman
Frances Payne Bolton. She implemented this
government program so current nurses working
could go overseas or remain stateside to provide
care for our serviceman. The nurses who graduated
thru the cadet nursing program would then replace
the nurses who left and continue the care here at
home. After graduating as an RN from St. Luke’s
Hospital, BJ was sent on affiliation at Rainbow’s
Children Hospital for pediatrics and then to the
Cleveland Psychiatric Institute for mental illness.
She worked full time for awhile and then continued
her career part time at Fairview Hospital, Lakewood
Hospital in pediatrics and then finally at Aristocrat
West.
BJ gave many hours to the workforce and
to her home life. After marrying Robert and
continuing her life in Lakewood, BJ and Robert
raised three children: Richard, Jo Ann and Cliff.
They lived in a bungalow on 157th Street in
Cleveland. Their children were raised in Cleveland
and also attended Cleveland schools. She was a
busy lady working inside and outside the home.
She loved every minute of it! When she did have
March Special Events
During the month of March we celebrate
a wide variety of special events. March is
Girl Scout Month; Irish-American Heritage
Month; Women’s History Month; Craft Month;
Dominoes Month; Music Therapist Month;
Nutrition Month; and Social Workers Month just
to name a few.
Girl Scout Troop #70200 will be back to play
cards & games, including Dominoes on Sunday,
March 8th at 1:30pm in 3CR. O’Neill Healthcare
North Olmsted will be celebrating St Patrick’s
Day with a social and of course green beer and
root beer for those who are not as brave.
Nutrition Month To educate consumers about
the importance of good nutrition by providing
the latest practical information on how simple
it can be to eat healthy. It is sponsored by the
American Dietetic Association and Dietitians of
Canada. The 2015 theme for National Nutrition
Month is “Bite Into a Healthy Lifestyle.” Did you
know that the food pyramid guide to good
nutrition has been replaced with the Food Plate?
free time, BJ loved to ride her bicycle in the metro
parks, crochet and knit. She also was a Sunday
school superintendent. In this position, BJ would
supervise the Sunday school teachers. Robert, her
husband, kept busy working as a printing ink maker
at Morrison Printing Inc.. In addition to his full time
job, Robert also worked to help make prosthetics.
He had a natural ability to do this because he was a
wood carver in his free time. He was a very gifted
wood carver and BJ is very proud of his talent.
BJ has fond memories of her life with Robert
and her children. She feels she has led a happy,
wonderful life and feels blessed to continue her
happiness with her granddaughter Nicole who
attends LCC. She also has a special place in her heart
for her grandson, Shawn, who passed away. Here
at Wellington Place, she enjoys all the activities,
loves talking to everyone, and enjoys the rides thru
the metro parks.
So next time your discussing March’s weather,
visit with BJ and you will see firsthand that she is
as gentle and kindhearted as the lamb that leaves
March.
We would also like to take this time to spotlight our Dietetic
Technician Registered, Debbie Yarnell. Dietian’s Day is
also celebrated in March. It is on March 11th. In honor
of Nutrition Month and healthier eating O’Neill Healthcare
will once again be having our weekly questions about
nutrition and food on our AL and Skilled Activity boards
to win prizes. Correct answers will be placed into a bucket
and a weekly winner will be drawn. New questions will
be posted every Monday and winners will be drawn that
week on Friday around 12pm noon. Good Luck!
Not to be left out, March is also Social Worker’s Month.
Erin Leiby, LSW is O’Neill Healthcare North Olmsted’s
very own Social Worker. Erin has been here helping our
Residents for about 2 ½ years. She has been in the field
for about 10 years. Erin has a BA in Social Work; Health &
Human Services; and a Literary Art Degree. She is currently
working on her Masters at Youngstown State University.
She has been married to Ray for 8 years and they have one
son, Ethan and a chocolate lab named Gage. In Erin’s spare
time, she enjoys reading, making crafts, traveling, writing
poetry, and collecting and refinishing antiques. Erin stated,
“It is a joy and privilege to work with others.” Erin’s patients
agree, she is very compassionate and is always willing to
help others.

The O’Neill Management Donor Advised Fund was set up so you can give a gift that benefits the staff at
O’Neill Healthcare – North Olmsted by providing grants to those employees furthering their education.
A gift to this Fund in order to say thank you to our staff is much more meaningful than a tray of cookies
or candy. Additionally, gifts made to this Fund can be a special way to honor a loved one. For more
information, please speak with Kimberly Eting, LNHA .
