FIRSTLANTIC HEALTHCARE: Kind, Compassionate Home Health Care

To make a difference in someone’s life is a reward in itself, but to make a difference in many people’s lives is a lofty mission.

That is exactly what Bart Delsing and Jack Maloney do every day. As founders and owners of FirstLantic Healthcare they have created a company culture of integrity that hinges on excellent care defined by trust, compassion and communication.

These are not idle words. They are the guiding principles in this 25-year-old company that has been chosen (by the Sun Sentinel) as a Top Workplace in South Florida for ten years.

FirstLantic provides hourly home healthcare, care management, and home placement services. They’re also authorized VA Providers and make sure veterans get the quality, compassionate care they so deserve.

There is a reason this locally owner-operated healthcare company is celebrating 25 years in existence – and it’s not just happenstance.

It’s part and parcel of their hard work, stellar workplace values (for employees and clients) and company culture that values education, devotion and communication. There are a lot of home healthcare companies in South Florida, but few are owned by local professionals who aim for excellence and yield to the changing needs of their clients.

Just ask them. “This is the best and most professional service. I needed help with my mom and called FirstLantic. They provided services the same day and my mom loved the person that they sent to care for her. They went above and beyond to help her,” said Artie.

There are a lot of stories like Artie’s. Children and relatives are often left in the dark about how to care for their loved ones when they get discharged from the hospital. But FirstLantic is always ready (and available) to help those who need their services.

After 25 years, this longevity milestone is not one they take lightly. “It’s been an incredible journey, and none of it would have been possible without our amazing team, our loyal patients, and the communities that welcomed us with open arms. We’re so grateful for the support and trust you’ve placed in us over the years,” said FirstLantic President Jack Maloney.

For Jess Coburn, FirstLantic was the safe port in the storm of life for his mother. She was released from the hospital late one night with no care instructions and no medications. He was overwhelmed and confused.

But not for long. “I made one call to FirstLantic and within two hours I had a home health professional assisting me with my mother and providing guidance and the assurance we needed. Thank you to all of the wonderful caregivers at FirstLantic!”

Their staff of Home Health Aides, Certified Nurse Assistants, RNs and LPNs are the best in the business. They have worked for FirstLantic for many years and are compassionate, caring and enjoy what they do.

Part of the reason for FirstLantic’s excellent reviews is that their staff are treated well and respected by Maloney and partner Bart Delsing.

They both know that to get respect you have to give respect. They also know that communication is vital in any business, but especially in the healthcare business.

That is why they have 21 Fundamentals that set standards for their company culture. Things like “Honor commitments,” “Find a way to make it happen,” and “Care like it’s your own Grandmother.”

These fundamentals help FirstLantic retain reliable and caring health-care professionals, while maintaining an excellent reputation in the industry. They know they must always act with integrity and do what is right all of the time, not just some of the time.

“We are all about making a difference in people’s lives. We want our team members to be inspired by the culture we have created. We are the preeminent leader in home healthcare and home placement services,” said Bart Delsing, COO.

FirstLantic Healthcare offers a wide variety of services. They range from bathing to dressing, light housekeeping, medication reminders, meal preparation, appointment scheduling, companionship,, and skilled nursing. Services are available hourly, daily, weekly or live-in.

FirstLantic Healthcare also offers Senior Placement Services with their LiveWell Placements division. LiveWell Placements provides seniors with different living options and guides them (and their loved ones) through the process of finding the best living solution, at no cost.

Often people don’t know where to go for assisted living, independent living or memory care. “We know which places have the best dining, social amenities or physical activities. We show them around and take them to the different facilities,” said Ellery Vick, VP Senior Living Consultant.

All staff members at FirstLantic are trained and supervised, licensed, bonded and insured.

If you would like to work for FirstLantic they are currently hiring healthcare professionals who want to make a difference in people’s lives.

As active members of the community, FirstLantic supports local organizations including George Snow Scholarship Fund, Habitat for Humanity, St. Vincent Ferrer Catholic Church, Boca Helping Hands, Cruiser Palooza, Honor Flight, Boca Ballet, Caring Kitchen, Head Strong, and Alzheimer’s Association.

“Our mission is to provide peace of mind to our clients, patients and their loved ones by caring for them with compassion, dignity and a commitment to excellence.”
