Yesterday, we told you that OHS was starting to move the DRS4 FOA dates up by several weeks. Although only a handful had moved by yesterday afternoon, this list is now much longer…98 in all.
If your service area is listed below, the dates for your DRS4 FOA is moving up by several weeks.
Also, if you are coming to DC for NHSA’s Fall Leadership Institute we would love to see you. We’ll be in most of the sessions, including Monday’s DRS Day, and having lunch, coffee and dinner with as many of you as possible. Be in touch!
