The Team
Who We Are
Risha Raja, MOT, OTR/L
Founder & Director of Clinical Services
Risha is the visionary behind Healthy Milestones, a company dedicated to redefining workforce solutions in healthcare. As an experienced Occupational Therapist with 16 years in the field, Risha has devoted her career to improving the lives of elderly individuals, ensuring they receive the compassionate care they deserve.
​
Her journey to founding Healthy Milestones in 2020 was driven by a deep passion for both patient care and supporting her fellow healthcare professionals. Witnessing firsthand the challenges faced by caregivers—burnout, lack of resources, and limited support—she was inspired to create a company that not only prioritizes quality care for seniors but also fosters a strong, supportive community for healthcare workers.
​
Under her leadership, Healthy Milestones goes beyond staffing solutions; it serves as a hub where healthcare professionals find meaningful career opportunities, ongoing support, and a sense of belonging. Risha’s commitment to people-first care continues to shape the company’s mission, ensuring that both patients and providers thrive in an environment built on trust, respect, and excellence.
Kapil Nanda
Co-Founder, Healthy Milestones
As the Co-Founder of Healthy Milestones, Kapil Nanda has been instrumental in driving the company’s rapid growth and strategic expansion across the healthcare continuum. Since its inception, Healthy Milestones has grown from a team of just 20 employees to over 360 in just five years—an achievement that reflects Kapil’s operational expertise and visionary leadership.
​
While Risha Nanda laid the foundation for Healthy Milestones, Kapil helped take the organization to new heights by creating a fully integrated healthcare ecosystem. Under his guidance, the company has evolved from a medical staffing agency into a diversified healthcare organization that includes a network of primary care offices, ownership and management of Assisted Living Facilities (ALFs), and now, full-scale management of nursing homes across the state of Florida.
Kapil’s focus on vertical integration and community impact has allowed Healthy Milestones to not only deliver quality care but also ensure continuity across all stages of the patient journey. His work continues to transform the way healthcare services are delivered—building a model that is scalable, sustainable, and deeply rooted in compassionate care.
