Last Tuesday, dozens of members of the Ohio Chapter met at Wesley Glenn Retirement Community, in Columbus, for the Ohio Chapter Conference to network, learn and build their home care businesses. While officials from the State Health Department were unable to attend the meeting to update members on the progress of issuing licenses to home care agencies, they did send an update on where license applications stand today. HCAOA is working with ODH to schedule another time for officials to speak with members. Any questions regarding the update should be forwarded to vicki@hcaoa.org no later than May 18.
