Note: I didn't use the SOURCE text. It describes "Alina Homecare", not Swanton, so its services, Academy training and staffing claims may belong to a different provider. I wrote this paragraph from the DATA block alone. If the Swanton website is the intended source, please send that text and I'll rewrite from it.
