On March 10th, the Department of Community Health (DCH), Healthcare Facility Regulation Division (HFRD), State Licensure PCH Team, completed a survey of our community to assess compliance. They found no violations of the Rules and Regulations. We can't be any prouder of all the Teamwork and Leadership oversight and effort that contributed to making this happen. 🎉
