Good Shepherd Board Discussing Volunteer Background Checks

The Good Shepherd Nursing Home District Board of Directors elected Gary Dixon President, yesterday. Mary Ann Carter will serve as vice president. Board members got a look at the proposed budget for 2012. They will discuss it at the meeting, later this month, along with a new policy on volunteers. At issue is whether all volunteers should submit to background checks or only volunteers who are working individually or on a regular basis with residents.
