The HomeCentris Way

HomeCentris Healthcare’s vision and values are called The HomeCentris Way.  The HomeCentris Way consists of our core values, our core purpose, and our envisioned future and they are the guideposts for “the way we do things around here.”  It is the basis of HomeCentris’ culture and it helps solidify the compassionate care and excellent outcomes we have provided Mid-Atlantic seniors since 2000.

Core Purpose

HomeCentris’ Core Purpose describes why our team members come to work every day.  In study after study, Americas seniors have expressed the desire to remain independent at home and age in place rather than moving to a more institutional level of care.  At HomeCentris, our mission is to continually strive to find new resources and solutions to empower our clients to remain in their homes.  Officially, our Core Purpose is:

Empowering people to remain in the community through innovative health solutions.

We believe that by constantly asking what we can do to keep our clients at home, we are fulfilling our Core Purpose.
