Alamo Area Home Care Council History
___________________________________________________________
Over 50 years ago, in the 1960s, Sister Boniface with the St. Benedicts parish began this council as a means of uniting, advocating, and educating our South Texas community regarding home care services.
Initially the Alamo Area Home Care Council Board consisted of three sub-committees:
-
Legislative
-
Medicaid and government assistance
-
Trainings
We are proud to continue this rich history of education and advocacy to advance and improve excellent patient care.
