Our Simple Mission: To Get You Better

Our ultimate goal is to ensure a smooth transition for patients while enhancing the financial outcomes of the healthcare facility.
History
Founder and Advantage CEO, Amy Hancock, witnessed how her grandparents, as they aged, required specific types of nursing and therapy assistance. Yet, there seemed to be a healthcare gap for patients transitioning from a hospital or acute care setting to a skilled nursing or assisted living facility. Amy believed there was a better way to deliver contract therapy services to the post-acute-care population.
In 2003, Amy founded AdvantageCare Rehabilitation, LLC. Her desire to provide her grandparents with the best, most convenient care possible inspired the Advantage business plan. In 2006, she founded Advantage Home Health Services to extend the care her company could provide to nursing and therapy delivered in the comfort of a patient’s home utilizing a patient-centered transitional care model. Amy based all the Advantage services, including AdvantagCare Rehabilitation and Advantage Hospice around the foundation that seniors need a continuum of care, ensuring they get the medical attention they need and deserve throughout their medical journey.
In just 20 years, the Advantage group went from having a single employee – Amy Hancock – to more than 600 employees in 2023. Amy herself has been recognized as one of PA Business Central’s "Women Making a Difference," and one of "50 Women to Follow in Women-Owned Businesses." We are proud of the progress we have made – not only for our organization, but also for your family members and residents – over the last 20 years and are excited to see the immense impact we can make in the coming 20.
