CareSouth Carolina announces the retirement of George General, Bishopville Site Administrator, following 21 years of dedicated service to the organization and the communities it serves.
Throughout his career, General played a key role in CareSouth Carolina’s growth and evolution. When talking about his time with the organization, one word consistently comes to mind: evolution. From leadership development to staff growth and organizational change, General said he loved CareSouth’s commitment to staying fresh, adaptive, and forward-thinking in an ever-changing healthcare landscape.
He took great pride in developing teams across generations, recognizing the importance of supporting baby boomers, Gen X employees, and emerging leaders alike. For General, investing in people—and helping them grow—was central to CareSouth’s success.
“I will always cherish those moments and those opportunities to help develop and be with the staff,” General said.
Among his many accomplishments, General was an integral part of leading staff at CareSouth Carolina over the last couple of decades. He also served in the United States Air Force.
When asked what he will miss most, General points to the people. “The staff, the patients, the challenges,” he shared. “CareSouth feels like family, and being part of its continued evolution has meant everything to me.”
As he enters retirement, General looks forward to spending time fishing, enjoying meaningful moments with his grandchildren, and supporting his daughter in her professional endeavors—sharing the insight gained over decades of leadership and service.
CareSouth Carolina thanks George General for his exceptional leadership, dedication, and lasting contributions. His influence will continue to shape the organization for years to come.
