About the Company

Pine Park Health

In-community healthcare for assisted living residents

Pine Park Health delivers medical care inside assisted living communities by partnering with health plans to provide on-site services for residents. Clinicians conduct routine check-ups, chronic disease management, and urgent care directly within facilities, coordinating with residents' broader care plans. The model relies on contracts with health plans and possible direct service fees from communities to fund in-community care, reducing the need for residents to travel outside. Goal is to improve access to healthcare for seniors in assisted living, keep residents healthy in their communities, and reduce unnecessary hospital visits.
