  • Mark Lewis
    Director

    “Give me the ADHC. It’s what I’ve wanted since I joined the company”. With that impassioned plea, Mark Lewis took over the administration of the Bushwick ADHC, including our Trinity and Ridgewood locations. Centers always tries to find just the right match for each facility, someone who will blend equally well with a diverse staff, participants from every cultural background in the city, lots of family members and still be able to manage the daily demands of running three locations with scores of members who each have their unique requirements. It helps to choose someone who can really move. And with five marathons under his belt already, Mark is that person! He does it all and makes it look easy. And he’s a really nice guy. Stop in and say hello. You’ll both be glad you got to meet!

  • Gabriel Aguero, RN
    Director of Nursing

    “Where else can you get so much satisfaction from your work? This doesn’t even seem like work to me”. That’s the attitude that Gabriel brings to the Trinity Center every day, so it’s little wonder that our participants and their families all feel so comfortable knowing Gabriel is in charge. “We take care of everyone, we make sure their physical, emotional and spiritual needs are met each and every day. And we make sure they enjoy every day of their lives with us”. When he isn’t making a difference in the lives of our program participants, Gabriel is probably practicing yoga or spending time with the love of his life, his daughter Emma. If you’re interested in seeing the Trinity Center, make sure you meet Gabriel when you visit. You’ll be glad you did.

  • Richard Osario
    Director of Recreation

    Richard has a great job. He’ll be the first to tell you that he gets paid to have fun, and to make sure everyone around him is having fun, too. And the fact is, he is great at having fun! Richard heads the Recreation Department for Centers Health Care’s Adult Day Health Care program. It’s his job to know what people like to do and to see that they get to do it. Often. Born and raised in Queens, Richard earned his degree in Art Therapy from Long Island University and has been working in the adult care world for ten years. “I’ve been having fun for ten years, but there’s a serious side to what I do, too. I love to use the science of recreation to engage people and to enhance their lives, to see how recreation keeps them sharp, focused, and often how it can be used to help people recover from strokes, cardiac incidents, surgeries and other medical conditions. Trips, games, crafts, they all serve a very high purpose in our program.” But for most of our residents, it all comes down to having a great time each and every day they spend at one of our Adult Day Health Care facilities. And we have Richard to thank for that.

  • Elizabeth Marquez Torres, LSW

    Elizabeth knows what she’s doing. With 25 years of work experience in Human Services, and after raising three wonderful sons, she now looks after our Trinity family, seeing to the social and spiritual needs of everyone who comes through our door, participant and family member alike. Elizabeth is also an ordained minister whose missionary has taken her to Central and South America, and back to her native Puerto Rico. A graduate of Adelphi University, you may be lucky enough to get her to read some of the poetry she’s written. But if not, just seeing the way she cares for everyone at Trinity is poetry in motion.

  • Miguel Cheque
    Director of Therapy

    Everyone loves Miguel. He’s one of those holistic healers that understands the need to treat the whole person, not just one specific injury. On any given day he may be found setting people up on various exercise machines, helping others through a series of hands-on range-of-motion stretches, or massaging sore backs. Is it any wonder that therapy is always one of every resident’s favorite part of the day?
