Home Care Division Mission Statement
Ohio Home Care Organization promotes the advancement and delivery of highest quality home and community based services through advocacy, education and member support services.
Philosophy
The organization is committed to providing hospice, home & palliative care education, technical and supportive services and advocacy to members, non members, and members of the community. The three identified areas or divisions above are engaged in the care of patients who are facing end of life, those who require home or community based care, or who are experiencing advanced chronic illness or life-limiting injury/conditions.
Additionally, OHPCO provides education and guidance for health care planning by distributing advance care planning materials such as Living Will Declarations, Health Care Power of Attorney Forms, Organ Donation Forms and Do Not Resuscitate Information. OHPCO is a charitable organization which receives its funding through a variety of resources, including member dues, educational programming, grant funding, donations and charitable giving.
We believe that through appropriate means and a caring community, a family may achieve physical, mental, and spiritual comfort for the duration of service and beyond.
Vision
OHPCO should be the change agent for the provision of quality hospice, home and palliative care, throughout the health care continuum, promoting best practice and the utilization of technology to pursue and advocate for consumer programs/services focused on community development and support, meeting the needs of the individual and family to maintain services within their home or community setting.
