You're the "rock star" if you're showing the righteous ways of a Firehouse leader. You play beautiful music, which for pianist Jamie Gallao (Clinical Educator) and drummer Martin De Guzman (Chief Revenue Officer) also meant literally doing it. See less

High Five! Here are some leaders who keep inspiring the Team Firehouse, from left: Pearl, Jun, Alan, Amabel, and Alma.

"When you have stripped yourself of ego, attitude, and self-dependency, your eyes will be opened to the qualities of someone who aligns with your core values and ambitions." (Page 57, "Bloom on the Battlefield," by Amabel De Leon.)

During a lunch gathering celebrating a Firehouse member's birthday, someone noticed Alan De Leon not in the queue for food galore and mused that he should take his spot.

In his affectionate, controlled voice, Alan replied in jest, "No. The captain of the ship goes last. The captain will go down with the ship."

That's Firehouse leadership on cue.

Four of the revered women in the company, each of whom excelled in the nursing profession, and much more through home health care. From left: Pearl Silao, Amabel De Leon, Jamiely Gallao, and Ena Almonares.

They're drawn to each other because, for one, they have chosen to walk on the righteous path. Ena said it succinctly, “Choose kindness because one good word you say may encourage others without you knowing it. Practicing the act of kindness is for free and priceless."

Jamie Gallao is currently mentoring as Clinical Educator for all the home health sites under the stewardship of Alan and Amabel De Leon. She has the knowledge, the experience, and a long, colorful history with the couple and their ever-advancing entrepreneurial pursuits for home health care and the community.

How she made it to America? This Bukidnon-native and nursing graduate-practitioner is also a talented pianist who at some point was tapped to play for a cultural show in the US. Her father, James, once told her that her music would be her passport to go the distance. Well, literally and figuratively.
