(Providence, RI) -- Care New England today announced the launch of a new shared brand identity designed to help patients, families, and the community more easily recognize and navigate locations and services. This updated brand reflects a shared system of care while preserving the individual names, identities, and trusted reputations of each operating unit within Care New England.
Women & Infants Hospital, Butler Hospital, Kent Hospital, the VNA Home Health & Hospice, The Providence Center, Anchor Recovery, Integra, and CNE Medical Group will continue to operate independently with their own leadership and workforce. Together, they will share key system resources that improve care delivery and the patient experience, including a single electronic health record, consolidated billing, and coordinated clinical and operational services.
The new logo will serve as a visual cue to patients and the community that Care New England – through all associated entities and operating units – can help them navigate healthcare by making it convenient and seamless to access the exceptional foundational care they need throughout their life’s journey.
“Each of our operating units has earned the trust of Rhode Islanders and the greater community,” said Dr. Michael Wagner, president and CEO, Care New England Health System. “This brand brings that trust together under one shared symbol, showing our shared commitment to our patients.”
The new brand will be rolled out across facilities, digital platforms, and patient materials over time.
