As a home health care professional, Dianna Stump, R.N. witnessed many people being denied service for a variety of reasons. Coupling her love of the elderly with the recognition of the ever growing need for professional home heath care services, Dianna founded TLC Home Health of Ohio, Inc. in 1996 to ensure all applicants would be admitted for service regardless of their age, race, religion, sex, handicap, diagnosis, national origin, ancestry, color, or Vietnam-era Veteran status. We met with Dianna and Office Manager Phyllis Withrow recently, and listened as they described the services TLC Home Health of Ohio provides;
