Portland, Maine (May, 2006) - Jim Berryman, President of Home Care Services, was awarded the Community Partnership Award for 2005 by New England Rehabilitation Hospital of Portland (NERHP). The award is given to a community partner in grateful recognition of their contributions, performance and dedicated service to New England Rehab Hospital patients and staff. A ceremony was held earlier this year at NERHP's Brighton Room to honor Mr. Berryman.

"Jim and all of his employees are always willing to go the extra mile to meet a patient needs." says Amy Morse, CEO, NERHP. "No problem or concern is ever too big or too small for his staff to work to resolve. People always have the utmost respect and admiration for the work that they do. Jim and his company help to contribute to our successes with our patients."

Jim established his business in 1993 and continued his relationship with NERHP from working with the hospital through a prior company since the mid 80's. His business has become well regarded within the community at large.
