Central, Southeast Ohio STARS Luncheon Honors Frontline Staff

Forty-three frontline care partners were recognized at the Central and Southeast Ohio STARS Awards luncheon hosted by Otterbein SeniorLife Granville, where colleagues and leaders gathered to honor the people delivering hands-on care and support to older Ohioans each day.

Special thanks to our host site, Otterbein Granville, for their hospitality, and administrator, Derik Kroeze, for providing the welcome remarks. Thank you as well to the staff and volunteers at Otterbein SeniorLife Granville for helping make honorees feel welcome and appreciated. The program also included remarks from Susan Wallace, president and CEO of LeadingAge Ohio, and Molly Homan, director of operations at LeadingAge Ohio. With two more STARS awards ceremonies still to come in Northeast and Northwest Ohio, we look forward to recognizing and celebrating more frontline care partners across the state.
