Mother Nature threatened a storm that drove the Flag Day Celebration inside on the last minute. The spirit of the residents and veterans were not at all dampened by the rain. Shannon Reams performed for the crowd (pictured) and the color guard was not concerned about a little rain (pictured).
​
"The Logan Acres Foundation Board works hard behind the scenes and the way that they seamlessly changed gears to host the celebration indoors was no surprise to me. The focus was on the residents and veterans in attendance and we were successful in honoring them. "

​- Laura Haverkos, Director of Campus Marketing

Logan Acres Senior Community announced that Kathryn Sherer, director of The Homestead at Logan Acres, successfully completed the Certified Executive for Assisted Living (CEAL) certification program offered through the Ohio Centers for Assisted Living (OCAL), an affiliate of the Ohio Health Care Association. Sherer passed the NAB (National Association of Long Term Care Administrator Boards) Residential Care/Assisted Living Administrators Examination to earn the CEAL designation.

CEAL is a comprehensive certification program designed to elevate the skills and professionalism of assisted living administrators in Ohio by providing a national certification along with Ohio’s most comprehensive state specific training. The CEAL Training Course is a combination of interactive classroom training, guided self-study, and hands-on clinical learning. The program is designed for experienced assisted living executives looking for a competitive edge in the marketplace, or those interested in obtaining the necessary skills to successfully lead an assisted living building in Ohio or nationwide.

Although Ohio does not require certification for assisted living administrators, CEAL has aligned its program curriculum with the NAB Residential Care / Assisted Living Administrators Licensing Examination so that credentialed assisted living executives in Ohio meet national competency standards and are positioned for any future changes to Ohio’s RCF administrator requirements.
​
Sherer has been the director at The Homestead since she transitioned from the director of Campus Marketing role one year ago. While the CEAL credential is not a requirement for The Homestead director, Sherer states, “The opportunity to fine tune my skills and expand my knowledge and value to the residents and the campus on which I serve is something I am driven toward. I am grateful to Logan Acres Senior Community, Progressive Health Systems and the Logan County Commissioners for the opportunity to continuously grow professionally and as a servant to those that choose to make The Homestead at Logan Acres their home.”
