LAKE FOREST, Calif.,
June 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Apria
Healthcare is celebrating 25 years of improving the quality of life
for its patients at home.
Apria was formed in 1995 when two of the leading U.S. home
healthcare companies were combined. Since its inception, Apria
has dedicated itself to providing exceptional service and
outstanding care. In addition, its employees strive to be an
integral part of the local communities where they live and
work.
Over the years, Apria has provided equipment and service to
patients in disaster-struck areas, demonstrated its commitment to
veterans and military spouses through hiring programs and initiated
green earth projects to salvage repair parts and recycle scrap
metal on unusable equipment.
"During floods, wildfires, hurricanes and now a pandemic, Apria
has a proud tradition of delivering much-needed respiratory and
home medical equipment to its patients, regardless of the
circumstances," said Dan Starck,
Apria's Chief Executive Officer.
With 25 years of experience, Apria has grown into a leading
national provider of home healthcare products and services, with
over 275 local branch offices across the
United States, and approximately 6,500 employees.
Today the Company is proud to provide care for over 1.8 million
patients each year. Through its products and services, Apria
provides a new beginning for its patients—in many cases the chance
to return home from the hospital to resume their lives.
"As we celebrate our 25th anniversary, we want to
take the time to express our gratitude and appreciation for our
patients and employees who made this milestone possible," added
Starck. "Apria's top priority has and continues to be the care
and well-being of our valued patients, and we look forward to
serving them in the years to come."
