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
After being in and out of the hospital for almost a month for different health issues, my 89 year old Mom was diagnosed with Covid 19. Due to Mom's mild Covid symptoms, she was able to be discharged to return to her home. At this point, Mom required 24 hour care and I knew this was going to be difficult. I contacted numerous health care agencies but the kindest response I received was from Select Care. Almost immediately, Kelly said, "We want to help". I knew from that statement alone that I had found the perfect people to take care of Mom. From that day on, until Mom passed, Mom was given the most amazing care from each and every one of the nurses and aides. Every one who took care of Mom was caring, loving, compassionate and sensitive to all of Mom's needs. All of the staff kept in constant contact with me and guided me through all of the necessary arrangements that Mom needed before and after her discharge from the hospital. Even after Mom's passing, they have continued to help finalize Mom's needs. Needless to say, I feel that Select Care have been my guardian angels. They are the kindest people and I am so very lucky to have found them.
