In December 2024, Home and Hospice of Nursing Placement (est. 1976) merged with Health Concepts Ltd. (est. 1964), bringing two family- and locally–owned Rhode Island healthcare organizations together to provide skilled nursing, home care, rehabilitation, outpatient therapy, palliative, and hospice care services to Rhode Islanders and their families. The merger was the first of its kind in the Ocean State,resulting in a closed-loop health care network with the ability to provide multiple facets of care in the comfort of one’s own home or a more clinically advanced setting. The company is headquartered at 588 Pawtucket Avenue, Pawtucket RI 02860; 401–728-6500; nursingplacement.com andhealthconceptsltd.com.
