The Ohio PCCC held its 2nd annual statewide educational event on Tuesday in Columbus, with 474 attendees spending the day learning about culture change from a variety of perspectives.

I attended the meeting and got to meet a lot of great folks working hard to innovate and spread the word around the state -- including my first cousin Stacie Hubbard from the Hennis Care Centre in Dover, OH -- who I didn't know was going to be there!

Carmen Bowman from Edu-Catering gave morning and afternoon presentations to the whole group about regulations and culture change, and I videotaped some of her afternoon session about the new interpretive guidelines for activities.

The lighting on the podium area wasn't ideal, but Carmen's energetic and informative talk got everyone thinking critically -- and ready to return to their organizations to introduce innovative pratices!
