About CINQCARE

CINQCARE is a provider-led, community-based comprehensive health and care partner. Our purpose is to every day improve the health and well-being of those who need care the most. We do that by removing barriers to health and well-being and providing care in the community and as close to the home, including in-home, whenever possible.

At CINQCARE, we know that race and culture matter for effective healthcare outcomes. That is why we take race, culture and environment into account in our care delivery. We are building a culture of care, which starts with understanding our patients, their needs and their care plans.

At CINQCARE, we also know that effective care is about local physicians, local nurses, local caregivers, local services, personal care, and infrastructure that serve the needs of people, not the symptoms of illness. Providing services in the home whenever possible is key to our approach. We aim to deliver better outcomes for people and the communities in which they live.

CINQCARE’s purpose is to every day improve the health and well-being of those who need us the most – with a deep commitment to Black and Brown populations – in their homes and communities. It requires the collaborative and cohesive effort of numerous individuals across all levels of the organization to deliver on this purpose. Once community at a time, we are determined to help create a world where health and care isn’t a burden. Because we believe providing care is a privilege – one we are grateful to earn. That’s why CINQCARE has built a different way to care.

CINQCARE was born different. We were created to be on call to answer the call every day. We are driven to deliver health, care and well-being to those who need us the most and to relentlessly support our team members on the front lines. That’s our calling and if it’s yours we hope you’ll join us.
