Accredited Home Health Services Purchases Downey Regional Medical Center's Home Health Agency

Woodland Hills, CA, August 04, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Today, Barry Berger, President of Accredited Home Health Services, and Kenneth Strople, President & CEO for Downey Community Hospital, signed an agreement for Accredited to acquire the hospital’s home health agency. “This is good for our patients and for the community,” Strople says, “It allows DCH to focus on care delivered in our hospital while knowing an experienced, trusted agency helps our patients successfully transition back to home”.

“Adding Downey Community Hospital’s Home Health Agency gives us the opportunity to help more people. We are excited to become part of the Downey and surrounding community”, says Berger.

Accredited is no stranger to this situation. In recent years, Accredited’s longevity, experience, and reputation for exceptional patient care has served as a valuable asset to others ceasing their home care operations. Medshares (West Hills Hospital), Cedars Sinai Medical Center and Addus Home Care (Orange County) have worked to transition staff and patients to Accredited before closing their own home health agency

At a time when our economy is making it difficult for businesses to succeed, Accredited has expanded its commitment to provide quality healthcare services to patients who prefer to recuperate at home. Adding a third licensed home health location (Downey) enables Accredited to provide services throughout most of Los Angeles County and parts of Ventura & Orange County.

As Berger founded Accredited in 1980 and has continued to expand both geographically and with its service options, Accredited has become one of the largest private owned home health care agencies in California. In addition to the company’s role as a major service provider, Berger and his staff are active members in the California Association for Health Services at Home trade association and help promote education, advocacy and legislation to guide quality home care services throughout the state.
