OVERVIEW
The Hometown Healthcare is a full service HME & Pharmacy provider with $5 million in revenue
based out of Watervliet, New York. Hometown Healthcare has been serving the pharmacy
needs of their patients since 1953 but has responded to the changing healthcare climate by
adding a full line of home medical equipment, including home oxygen, CPAP supplies,
and ambulatory equipment.
Hometown Healthcare is on a five year mission to transform itself from a traditional DME &
Pharmacy to an organization that is known for delivering new levels of population health
through medication adherence and therapy based respiratory compliance. They need the right

FOUNDATIONS OF HOMETOWN HEALTHCARE
HTHC exists to keep people in their home and
help them to age gracefully.
HTHC operates from a foundation of Empathy,
driven by the Heart of a Warrior (See below),
grounded in the humility of a Teachable Spirit.
HTHC holds
philosophy:
the
following
customer

All customers are given Grace (favor
whether they deserve it or not).

Anticipatory service closes the gap in
under met and un-met customer needs.

We want to WOW our customers. To WOW, Hometown must differentiate itself, which
means doing something perhaps unconventional and innovative, above and beyond what's
expected in order to have an emotional impact on the customer. Hometown is not an
average company, so their service is not average, and they don't want their people to be
average. The expectation is that every employee delivers WOW.
