The Ohio Masonic Home Partners with Ohio Living Home Health & Hospice
COLUMBUS (Ohio Living) -- The Ohio Masonic Home announced on August 23 that Cornerstone Masonic Healthcare, LLC, their home health and hospice subsidiary, will discontinue community-based services operations, and that effective October 1, these services will be provided by Ohio Living Home Health & Hospice, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ohio Living.
Cornerstone was started in 2000 as a faith-based home health agency, and was acquired by Masonic Senior Services of Ohio Corporation in 2008. Over the years, Cornerstone has grown and expanded their medical service offerings throughout the state of Ohio. Cornerstone began by serving three counties in West Central Ohio and now has the ability to serve more than 50 counties throughout West Central and Northeast Ohio combined.

"We are proud to partner with and to serve the 90,000 Masons and the approximately 500 Masonic Lodges in Ohio," said Ohio Living President/CEO Laurence C. Gumina. "We believe both organizations were founded with similar missions, to provide caring and quality services to people in the place they call home."
"We're pleased to announce the relationship with another faith-based organization. We believe this partnership will expand both organizations’ ability to provide quality care to Masons and non-Masons alike," commented Scott Buchanan, Ohio Masonic Home CEO.
