Specializations

We take pride in the diverse levels of clinical specializations provided by our nurses and therapists. We understand the need for state-of-the-art knowledge across many specialties, as well as continuing education, so we employ compassionate and reliable nurses who are culturally diverse and screened to provide care within multi-disciplinary teams. Many of our nurses and home health aides are bilingual and offer services in different languages including Cantonese, Korean, Mandarin, Russian, Spanish or Tagalog (Filipino). We believe this allows our patients to feel as comfortable as possible.
