Our Story

Two decades ago, Health Link Home Health and Hospice was born from a vision of compassion, care, and the unwavering belief that everyone deserves to receive healthcare in the comfort and familiarity of their own home. Founded by Alla Reykhel, a nurse with a heart full of empathy and a deep understanding of the healthcare needs within our community, Health Link has grown from a small, passionate team into a leading provider of home health and hospice care in the Bay Area.

‍

Alla’s journey began with a simple yet profound desire to make a difference in people’s lives during their most vulnerable moments. She recognized early on the significant impact that personalized, patient-centered care could have on the recovery and well-being of individuals facing health challenges. With her expertise, dedication, and a small team of equally committed professionals, Alla set the foundation for what Health Link would become—a beacon of hope, care, and support for countless individuals and families.

‍

Over ten years ago, a new chapter in Health Link’s story began when Boris, Alla’s family member, joined the team. With a fresh perspective, boundless energy, and a commitment to carrying forward the mission and values instilled by Alla, Boris stepped into the role of CEO, propelling Health Link into its next phase of growth and impact. Under his leadership, the organization has not only expanded its services but also strengthened its commitment to excellence, innovation, and community partnership.

‍

Seven years ago, the trajectory of Health Link was further enriched by the arrival of Tanya Malayan, whose dedication and vision quickly established her as the north star of our organization. Tanya brought with her a renewed focus on the core principle that had always guided Health Link: the unwavering focus on the patient. Her influence helped to realign and reinvigorate our team’s commitment to providing exceptional, individualized care. Tanya’s contributions have been instrumental in ensuring that every decision, every innovation, and every aspect of our care is centered around the needs and well-being of our patients.

‍

The transition from Alla to Boris, and the integration of Tanya’s visionary leadership, marked a seamless continuation and evolution of the family business. Each leader, with their unique strengths, has contributed to staying true to the core principles of compassion, integrity, and patient-focused care. This blend of family values and professional excellence has enabled Health Link to thrive, building a legacy of care that honors its roots while looking forward to the future.

‍

Today, Health Link Home Health and Hospice stands as a testament to the vision and hard work of its founders and every team member who has joined the journey along the way. As we celebrate 20 years of service, we remain dedicated to empowering individuals and their families to regain their health and independence, guided by our unwavering commitment to our mission, vision, and values.

Our story is one of growth, resilience, and above all, the relentless pursuit of providing the highest quality care to those we serve. Inspired by our founders and motivated by the trust our community places in us, we look forward to continuing this journey, making a difference, one patient, one family at a time.
