DAYTON, OH, May 18, 2026 — Home Care Network, Inc. (HCN), a leading agency provider of home-based care and clinical services across Ohio and Indiana, has been honored with the prestigious 2026 AGILE Distinction Award for Culture of Integrity. Presented by Axxess, this national recognition highlights elite care-at-home organizations that raise the bar for care delivery, compliance, and ethical operations in an increasingly complex healthcare environment.This week, we took a moment to celebrate them.
- For HCN’s regional network of partners – including care program administration entities and case managers, hospital discharge coordinators, and Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) serving Medicaid-eligible clients in Ohio and Indiana – this award validates HCN as a highly compliant, low-risk, and reliable partner for patient transitions.
- For clients and their families – it reinforces that their loved ones are receiving care from an agency built on absolute transparency and clinical excellence.
- For current and prospective employees – including home health aides (HHA, CHHA, CNA, STNA), personal care assistants (PCA), DODD-certified direct support professionals (DSP), nursing (LPN, RN), nursing leadership (RN Case Managers, Skilled Nurses), and all agency team members – this award proves that HCN is a workplace where clinicians and caregivers are genuinely supported, respected, and empowered to deliver the highest standard of ethical care.
“Integrity isn’t just a value; it drives every decision we make—from patient care to caregiver and clinician support—and it deepens the trust our team, clients, and partners have in us.”
- Kim King, CEO - Home Care Network, Inc.
This foundational culture is also a core driver of HCN’s workforce satisfaction and retention. By prioritizing robust clinician support and an ethical workplace, HCN continues to attract and retain the region’s top caregiving talent, ensuring consistent, high-quality care for clients across all service areas, operating at a 30% higher employee retention rate than the average Ohio home health agency.
The AGILE Distinction Awards are presented annually to forward-thinking care-at-home organizations that demonstrate exceptional performance, adherence to best practices, and measurable outcomes.
