OSWEGO, N.Y. — Oswego Health Home Care (OHHC) has hired Carrie Butler as its new director of patient services.
In this position, Butler, who has who has more than 13 years of home-care experience, will work with staff members to develop patient-care plans as well as determine if patients being discharged from the hospital can benefit from OHHC’s services.

Butler, a registered nurse, began her health-care career as a home health aide and advanced first as a case manager and later as a manager of clinical practice, where she coordinated patient home care, the agency said.

Butler later went on to earn both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in nursing from Roberts Wesleyan College in Rochester.
Butler has also been an adjunct clinical instructor, providing instruction to future nurses.
