First there was Hood Care then came the CCO
HOOD CARE, LLC
Carrie opened the doors to Hood Care, LLC with partner Kris Pyland not only as a way to ease the financial burdens of overpriced covid testing for productions, but to help the general public who were waiting up to 8 hours for a test when the pandemic first started. Open for two years, Hood Care helps thousands of people and various businesses of which she couldn’t be prouder. This is all in honor of her mother who’s life lesson of helping others which has been ingrained in Carrie’s soul.
Carrie Lynn Certa is a seasoned Line Producer so when the pandemic hit in 2020, she not only had to find creative ways to keep her productions up and running, stay within budget in spite of rising COVID costs and be on top of the ever-changing COVID rules from the state and federal governments and unions, she had a calling to be part of the solution! She opened Hood Care, LLC, a COVID Testing Company which had her on the frontlines with the doctors who were entrenched with the latest health information, access to the latest FDA approved and most accurate tests. Hood Care gave her the ability to not only stay on budget but also pivot quickly with the information she received prior to it hitting the public. Now she brings this wealth of knowledge to all of the productions she is brought on to CCO.
