Pat Tarantino

President

Living with and caring for an aging grandmother with decreasing capabilities for 2 years and seeing the positive affect it had on our entire family has had a lasting impact. Upon her passing in 1975, a home care career continued as a Service Coordinator and Branch Manager with two national companies. Ultimately in 1985, we established SelectCare Home Care Services and my personal and rewarding experience caring for a loved one has been its inspiration.

Providing compassionate home care performed by competent caregivers in New York City has been our mission. It has been very rewarding to observe how our dedicated staff shares and implements our belief that, “the right person makes all the difference”.

This ongoing philosophy has had a positive influence on so many and has instilled in all of us at SelectCare a sense of pride. Our goal is to provide a person to care for your loved one, as we would for our own family member in need.

Back to Our Staff
SelectCare has been helping to take care of my husband for an entire year, sometimes for 24 hours a day. He has been in constant danger of falling and has needed kind and careful help. This has been consistently provided by SelectCare. Not once did the agency fail to cover all these hours, even when someone occasionally had to cancel at the last minute. Always was a SelectCare aide there, ready to help at the appointed time. It was always easy to communicate with the office. The nursing help and advice was very useful and the nurse assigned to our case was the same one throughout the year. She visited every so often and was very knowledgeable and kind. I keep using the word "kind" because I think in this situation one needs not only competence but also kindness. This is consistently provided by SelectCare, both by management and by on-the-job aides. I recommend this agency very highly.
