HCR Home Care opens new office in DeWitt

DeWITT — HCR Home Care, a Rochester–based home-care agency, has opened a new office in DeWitt for its Central New York operations.

The nearly 2,900-square-foot venue is located at 6007 Fair Lakes Road on the southern side of the New York State Thruway.

HCR on March 15 held a formal-opening event and open house to celebrate its new office. 

Founded in 1978, HCR Home Care provides nursing and rehabilitation services, and specialty-care programs, according to its website.

“HCR Home Care provides high-quality, in-home health-care services in Central New York, from nursing and social work, to physical, occupational and speech therapy,” Elizabeth Zicari, president of HCR Home Care, contended in a news release. “This new, centralized office enables us to expand our services to more people in the region and to provide greater support for our local clinical staff.”

Besides the new DeWitt location, HCR also has an office in Homer in Cortland County. It began serving Cortland and Madison counties in 2011, and it expanded into Onondaga, Cayuga, Jefferson, and Oswego counties in 2014. 

HCR has 90 local health-care professionals working in its Central New York region, which includes Onondaga, Oswego, Cayuga, Cortland, Madison, and Jefferson counties.

The company currently provides home-care visits to more than 600 people in the Central New York region.

In addition to the Central New York area, HCR Home Care also operates offices in Clinton, Delaware, Genesee, Monroe, Schoharie, and Washington counties, according to its website.

The firm employs a total of nearly 800 people, it said in an email response to a BJNN inquiry. 

HCR’s clinical staff includes registered nurses; home-health aides; physical, occupational and speech therapists; and medical social workers.
