ABOUT GALLAGHER HHS

Gallagher Home Health Services is a family-owned and operated business built on the family values instilled in us by our mother, Iva Gallagher.

She considered it her purpose to help people and treated everyone like family. Our staff are carefully selected for their professional expertise, integrity, and most important, their willingness to treat our patients like family; they are simply the best in the business.

“Care giving comes naturally to our family” says Mrs. Karcz, President and Administrator.

“Our Mom believed she was the best caregiver in the world and she may have been right. So when we decided to start our business, we wanted to hire the most talented nurses in the counties we serve and we wanted the memory of our Mom present in everything we did and every decision we made. She is the Gold Heart in the center of our Tree of Life logo and a reminder to take care of our patients like we would our family — every day, and with every visit.”
