Oxford Voted Best Home Health Care Agency for Eighth Year
In February 2010, Oxford HealthCare was named Best Home Health Care Agency for the eighth consecutive year in the Springfield News-Leader’s Best of the Ozarks survey. Oxford is the only home care agency to receive the award since the inception of the poll and considers it a privilege to care for the people in our community.
New Executive Director Leads Mid-Missouri Expansion
Oxford's recent expansion to Boone and 10 surrounding counties in central Missouri has brought a full range of home care services to the area. Scott Andrews has been named the new Executive Director for Mid-Missouri and will help facilitate this expansion. Andrews has over 11 years of home care experience and is a former board chairman and member of the Missouri Council for In-Home Services and the Missouri Alliance for Home Care.
"Oxford is a great home care choice for Columbia and central Missouri. The combination of innovative technology, dedicated staff delivering excellent patient care, and a complete line of home care programs will allow residents to live as independently as possible in their own homes," said Andrews.
