Our Story
OUR HISTORY
The name "VANURA" Homehealth Services, Inc. was derived from the first 2 letters of the last names of the three founding nurses. In the summer of 2000, all three worked in a Skilled Nursing Facility in Riverside, CA. And through their friendly informal discussions, each contemplated on operating their own home health agency someday.
It was not until 2002 when each was compelled to initiate setting up Vanura Homehealth Services, Inc. The company hit its biggest blow when one of the founding nurses decided to pull out due to personal reasons.
With the help of families and friends through the form of prayers and sound advices, the two remaining founders decided to take the challenge in continuing with the task. Through the guidance of our Consultant, Vanura Homehealth Services, Inc. moved into an office located at 10630 Town Center Drive, Suite 127, Rancho Cucamonga, California on October I, 2002.
In February of 2003, the Department of Health Services walked into the office to perform the 1st of 2 licensing surveys. After a "good" initial survey, Vanura Homehealth Services, Inc. was permitted to provide home health services to 10 "trial" patients. On April 29, 2003, the Department of Health Services came back for the 2nd survey. All files and patient charts were meticulously scrutinized and patient visits supervised. We are proud to say that no deficiencies were found and observed by the DI-IS Surveyor. On May 1,2003, Vanura Homehealth Services, Inc. was officially given the license to operate as a Medicare-Medical Certified Agency.
Due to unforeseeable circumstances, the Agency had hit another snug, on November 20, 2003, the two remaining founders had mutually agreed to part ways for the good of the Agency. Thus, Amabel Nugpo and Ramon Alan De Leon were handed the torch to follow through with the task. On June 1,2004, Vanura Homehealth Services, Inc. moved to its current location at 10700 Jersey Boulevard, Suite 460, Rancho Cucamonga, California 91730. The Agency had grown conservatively in size, with its staff, area of coverage and clients that we cater to, but we continue to maintain the very same convictions that had been instilled since its inception in 2002.
The Agency had been through a lot since the establishment of this company, but through the support of family, friends, and most especially God, we continue to triumph over these challenges. We cannot predict what the future holds for VaI1llra Homehealth Services, Inc., but we continue to remain strong with our convictions and steadfast in our mission, ... and that is to provide the highest quality of care to our clients and to the community, conscientiously, ethically and morally, "one patient at a time."
