Background
CareLink is a non-profit, mission-based 501c3 organization that was founded in 1997 by non-profit post-acute and community-based organizations specializing in the care of older adults and adults with disabilities. These organizations include long-term care, housing, hospice, home care, assisted living and adult-day health. In addition, CareLink is a direct provider of a range of health and wellness services including rehabilitation (PT/OT/SLP), mobile dental, audiology, podiatry, psychiatry, brain health and wellness services. We keep individuals doing the things that they want to do, independently, in the place they call home.
~ CareLink is a network of members collaborating to ensure high quality community and post-acute care for the organizations we serve.
~ We manage the complete network so your patients and residents successfully find the care they need at the right place and time. This includes adult day services, home care, assisted living, short- and long-term care, hospice care, outpatient, and independent living.
~ Our members meet specific quality and service standards and are supported by CareLink’s program development and improvement opportunities.
~ We don’t shy away from change; we embrace it. We constantly update and collect data for outcomes, quality, and results, demonstrating the system’s impact on quality of life.
~ Through the network’s combined experience and shared learning, we identify gaps and create innovative solutions. Our rehabilitation services and mobile dentistry practice are two examples of how CareLink continually advances care for all adults.
