AT Home Care Achieves Ranking Among Top Agencies in the Country
By webmaster on 3/16/2009 7:46 AM

Congratulations to the entire team of AT Home Care!  Our reputation for consistent high quality medical service has been recognized, not only by our referral sources, but also by the HomeCare Elite which awards the top 25% of homecare agencies in the country with this designation.    The list of home health agencies includes only those whose performance measures in quality of care and improvement and financial performance are the best in the nation. The award for 2008 is the 4th consecutive year AT Home Care has attained this ranking!
 
 The quality of care we provide to the elderly and disabled is tracked by the Center for Medicare Services which gives us a score on specific care delivered.  We couldn’t have achieved the Homecare Elite ranking without our dedicated clinicians who put patient service first.&a ...

AT Home Care Sponsors Kids at Basketball Games
By webmaster on 2/23/2009 12:59 PM

VCU basketball is always exciting.  Sitting so close to the court and watching those guys rebound and
hustle before your eyes is thrilling for any fan, let alone a 13 year old kid.  Getting more kids who normally
wouldn’t be able to see a game due to financial situations and lack of transportation was the goal behind
VCU’s RAY program, of which AT Home Care is the leading sponsor this year.  The program provides
free tickets to underprivileged kids who are part of various programs in the Richmond Metropolitan area.
 
“Getting kids to appreciate sports is the first step in getting them to play them”, says Ed Kassab,
who himself has coached basketball for young kids for over 5 years.  Ed, the president of the home care agency
is a huge fan of VCU and rarely m ...

Continuing Education is Important to AT Home Care
By webmaster on 2/23/2009 12:57 PM

As part of the ever changing health care community, we at AT Home Care are always striving to keep up with advancements in medicine and physical therapy.
It is essential that our medical staff is given the opportunity to advance their skills and take advantage of educational opportunities.  Since we have some of the best nurses and PTs around, we have decided to draw upon our own resources and expertise by organizing some of our own training programs.  Why spend time searching when you have the best close to home?  These programs are organized not only for AT Home Care clinicians, but also for clinicians practicing outside the company who need CEUs as required by Center for Medicare Services.  Our latest seminar has been developed for Physical Therapists and Assistants and will be held March 18th, in Richmond.  It will be led by our ...

Employee Benefits Outstanding at AT Home Care
By webmaster on 2/23/2009 12:51 PM

Due to the nature of our industry, our home care clinicians are on the road most of the day visiting patients and driving to our other AT Home Care offices. We began leasing vehicles for our full time employees almost 3 years ago but have wanted to expand and upgrade our fleet as a part of our employee benefits package. In December, we were finally able to make it a reality! After a lot of research, we chose the Chevrolet Aveos both for their mileage and technology (specifically the OnStar navigation). In keeping with our commitment to environmental stewardship, Ed Kassab, CEO has invested in a Carbon Offset program with Terrapass, a national conservation credit company to further reduce the carbon footprint of these vehicles. As part of the employee benefits package, we include all gas and insurance expenditures for every one of our leased vehicles.  Employees seem genuinely impressed with the new cars as well as our effort to reduce green house gases.
