Gento, formerly Nursing Without Walls, a startup providing staffing and care delivery management to skilled nursing facilities and home health agencies, has secured $5 million in Series A funding.
The round was led by Jeff Anderson at Palisades Growth Capital and brings total capital raised to $7 million. Gento plans to use the influx to expand nationwide and improve care delivery through its app-based technology.
“Recent payment reforms require that home health agencies and skilled nursing facilities operate with the highest level of efficiency,” says co-founder and CEO Victor Gajendran. “Gento’s tech-empowered staffing and care delivery management solution is a win-win for the home health agencies, skilled nursing facilities, clinicians and especially the patients.”
Gento directly connects providers, clinicians and patients on demand through an app and has facilitated more than 75,000 patient visits. It was named one of the Top 10 Startups by Healthcare Tech Outlook.
“Gento has been consistently growing,” says Palisades Growth Capital’s Jeff Anderson. “I attribute this success to their user-friendly technology platform, meticulous attention to operations and passion for their customer’s success. In a vastly changing regulatory landscape, Gento is providing highly cost-effective solutions to the growing in-home healthcare market.”
