About Kadima Healthcare Group

Sourced by ZipRecruiter

One of the hardest decisions any of us will ever make is to move a loved one into a nursing home. Our goal is to make this decision much easier by creating residences that truly feel like an extension of a loved one’s home - where residents are respected as individuals and treated like family. We feel honored to care for others and a deep responsibility to provide the best care. We do whatever it takes to help our residents feel good and live life on their terms, whether that means getting back on their feet so they can return home or making a home with us. Kadima means “forward.” We chose this name because we believe that when we help residents move toward happier, healthier lives, we’re helping them “live forward.” The orange bird in our logo illustrates this forward movement, as well as the independence and hope we aim to inspire for everyone who lives and works at Kadima.
