Atlanta Nurse Creates Her Own Company To Help Employers With ‘COVID-19 Preparedness’
Georgia was one of the first states to reopen for business amid the COVID-19 pandemic — a decision that was heavily criticized by public health officials across the country.

It’s called Onward Healthcare Solutions and Education.
