Jaclyn Carter, ARS Cares Healthcare Heroes Winner in Myrtle Beach

“Our community healthcare workers have been working tirelessly to ensure our safety; recognizing their efforts by installing a new HVAC unit was an easy way we could ensure they have a comfortable and safe environment to return home to,” said Jason Poucher, GM of ARS/Rescue Rooter.

ARS/Rescue Rooter of Myrtle Beach, a local HVAC, Plumbing and Electrical services provider and part of the American Residential Services (ARS) Network of Brands, is providing a new HVAC unit to Jacyln Carter, a local Nurse as part of the ARS Cares Healthcare Heroes program. The program is an extension of the year-round, company-wide ARS Cares initiative, and is rewarding more than 50 free home services makeovers to healthcare professionals across the country during the current COVID-19 crisis.

“Our community healthcare workers have been working tirelessly to ensure our safety, and recognizing their efforts by installing a new water heater or HVAC unit was an easy way we could ensure they have a comfortable and safe environment to return home to,” said Jason Poucher, General Manager of ARS/Rescue Rooter of Myrtle Beach.

Jaclyn Carter has worked at Conway hospital in the labor and delivery department for over 10 years. Sadly last November she lost her 17 year old daughter, Jada, in a horrible vehicle accident. Three months prior she herself was in a horrible vehicle accident and almost lost her life. She was out of work for almost four months last year and her 12 year old HVAC unit stopped working. The installation of Carter’s new HVAC unit was completed on June 12th.

Following the announcement of the ARS Cares Healthcare Heroes program on May 13, family, friends, and co-workers were invited to share stories of why a Atlanta frontline worker was deserving of home improvements that would deliver relief and relaxation. ARS received more than 400 nominations.

The ARS Cares initiative was launched in 2016 to cultivate positive relationships with communities where we live, work, and play. Since that time, more than 90 home services makeovers have been completed, donating more than $500,000 of HVAC systems and water heaters to deserving recipients.
