Meet the Covenant Team
The two words company founder Ralph Barrientos most often uses to describe the Covenant team are "Experienced" and "Responsive."
Experience in the OR and throughout healthcare facilities where we spend most of our days. Experience in streamlining processes and problem solving. And, experience that teaches no project is ever done without real follow-through.
Responsiveness? That starts with our first conversation, carries through each customer interaction and is present everyday in our Service.
Meet the Covenant team.
Experienced and Responsive.
