How did Carewell SEIU 503 select Carina?
In the 2019 collective bargaining agreement, the Oregon Home Care Commission and SEIU Local 503 agreed that it was a priority to implement an updated consumer and provider registry in partnership with Carewell SEIU 503. As a result, Carina, a nonprofit with an established care service registry in Washington, was selected by Carewell SEIU 503 to carry out that work.
