HOME CARE SERVICES and
SUNNYSIDE HOME CARE PROJECT
Sunnyside Citywide Home Care Services, Inc. (SCHCS)
and Sunnyside Home Care Project, Inc. (SHCP) are committed
to the highest-quality in-home care. Each week, our
home health aides, home attendants, nurses, and other
professionals provide more than 52,000 hours of care each week
(help with shopping, cooking, dressing, bathing and
personal care, housekeeping, etc.). A plan of care is
developed for each client, in consultation with the
client, the family, and the physicians; a nurse oversees
the implementation of each plan of care.
Home care workers who speak
the client's language often can be assigned if the client
wishes.
Home care workers receive intensive orientation and
training at the beginning of their employment, and ongoing
in-service training throughout each year.
If you're interested in receiving home care, call (718)
784-6160, ext. 343 (TDD/TTY (800) 662-1220).
