A Team of Medical Professionals

Your health is too important to trust to anonymous online providers or part-time employees at the big-box stores. Our caring and qualified staff of over 20 professionals includes Respiratory Therapists, RN’s, HME Consultants, Certified Mastectomy Fitters and Certified Orthopedic Bracing Fitters. Our staff members have an average of 25 years of experience and participate in continuing education each year to stay on top of the latest advances in the health care world.

 

What We Offer

Community is a concept that H.O.M.E. takes seriously. By living and working in our communities we are servicing our friends, neighbours and their families. As such all H.O.M.E. employees must service all clients with the same respect and dignity we afford to our family, friends and neighbours.

H.OM.E.’s employees and management donate significant resources to these causes in the way of monetary/material donations, sponsorship, equipment and volunteer time. H.O.M.E. encourages ALL employees to get involved in local community associations/groups.
