The agency will offer high-touch, high-quality care to clients aging in place in the comfort of their homes.
A new privately owned home care agency has opened in Los Angeles.
Jason J. Kidushim, founder and CEO of Legacy Homecare LA, says the new agency fosters a client-centered approach with the goal of helping clients live with ease in their home environments. The approach consists of comprehensive care planning, weekly supervisory visits, family communication, physician coordination, organizing referrals, assisting with medical devices and equipment, and ad hoc interventions.
"We strive to create the best, every day, for our clients, employees, and their families by changing the way the world ages in place," Kidushim said in a statement.
Zehra Dhanani, RN, MSN, serves as the agency's director of client care services, with experience in medical-surgical, orthopedic, and pediatric nursing from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Her professional experience and years spent caring for relatives with various conditions inspired her to work with the elderly.
In addition to being a member of the American Nurses Association, she has been trained and received certification from the Alzheimer's Association. She also holds a Certified Dementia Practitioner certification from the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners.
