Five new locations will add additional caregivers and enhance service area in the Indiana and Ohio markets.

PurposeCare, a provider of coordinated homecare and home health services in the Midwest, announced its acquisition of three Midwest homecare agencies in the Indiana and Ohio markets.

The acquisitions include two homecare agencies in Indiana including Scott’s Home Healthcare located in Kokomo, which will be absorbed into the new Kokomo branch, and Attentive Personal Care located in South Indianapolis, which will be absorbed into the new South Indianapolis branch. PurposeCare also opened new offices in Jeffersonville and Lafayette. In addition, The Choice Nursing Care & Home Health, located in South Euclid, Ohio was also acquired last month and will be absorbed into the Cleveland office Location.

“This is part of our strategy to build depth in our established markets,” said PurposeCare chief executive officer, Rich Keller. “PurposeCare continues to focus on building its homecare census in Indiana and Ohio through both acquisitions and the opening of de novo branches.”
