WASHINGTON – The National Association for Home Care & Hospice (NAHC) and the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization (NHPCO) have joined forces to from the National Alliance for Care at Home. The Alliance, which has a new logo, as well as an initial website, will carry forward the work of serving home care, home health, hospice and palliative care providers as they deliver patients the highest-quality care in their own homes and communities. “Providers offering various forms of care at home have always looked to our national associations to help create a shared vision for the future,” said Kenneth Albert, chair of the Alliance’s transition board. “It took real imagination, dedication, and guts to take on the tough conversations about combining two organizations, each with more than 40 years of history. This Alliance will be the leading authority on transforming care in the home. We will implement that mission under a new name that welcomes providers across the care continuum to join – the National Alliance for Care at Home.” In August, the Alliance announced that Steve Landers, MD, MPH, would become its first CEO. Through the rest of 2024 and into 2025, the Alliance will continue integrating NAHC and NHPCO operations into a single organization.
