+ Hospital to rename Volusia Home Care department
Senior executives at Florida Hospital Flagler have decided to consolidate the home health operations of Florida Hospital Volusia Home Care, which services the West Volusia market, and Florida Hospital Memorial Home Health, which services the eastern corridor from Palm Coast to New Smyrna Beach. In December, the department’s name will be Florida Hospital Home Health. 

David Ottati, president and CEO of Florida Hospital Flagler, which will oversee the program, says the consolidation will streamline operations and save money.

“It will provide a larger, unified presence in Volusia and Flagler counties and will allow us to combine resources in areas that are duplicated in each location today,” he said. For more, visit www.FloridaHospitalHomeHealth.com.
