About NORTHCARE
NorthCare distinguishes itself from other local non profit organizations by offering programs designed to meet two important objectives directly tied to our mission. First, each program offered by NorthCare is intended to assist consumers in successful and safe living in a community setting with maximum self-sufficiency. Our Board of Directors and staff – more... believe people feel better and are more productive when able to remain in their own homes. Second, each program is designed to reduce the financial burden of the community by preventing unnecessary institutional care. Our diverse programs collectively decrease child foster care placements, adoption disruptions, pre-mature nursing home admissions, emergency room visits, expensive acute care hospital or jail admissions, jail recidivism, and numerous other institutional placements.
