Abington Health Announces its Acquisition of North Penn VNA

     ABINGTON, PA (April 1, 2013) - After a period of due diligence,
    officials at Abington Health are pleased to announce that the
    acquisition of the North Penn Visiting Nurse Association (NPVNA)
    has been finalized, effective April 1, 2013.

     “The leaders and staff of the NPVNA have created a wonderful
    organization dedicated to serving the home health and community
    health needs of the greater North Penn region,” says Laurence M.
    Merlis, Abington Health’s president and chief executive officer.
    “By bringing the NPVNA to Abington Health, it allows us to expand
     our home health services geographically and enhances our ability
     to provide the full continuum of care across the region.”

     The NPVNA’s 100 professional staff members have joined
    Abington Health Home Care and Hospice, which employs 200
    professionals who provide home care and hospice to residents in
    parts of Bucks, Montgomery and Philadelphia counties.

     “This is an exciting time for all of us in Home Care as we expect
    to serve many more members of our community next year,” said
    Elissa Della Monica, executive director of Home Care and
    Hospice at Abington Health. “It is a privilege to serve people in
    their homes when they need us most.”

     Along with staff members, the NPVNA services transitioning to
    Abington Health include a Chronic Care Management Program,
    Meals on Wheels, clinics for children, and dental services,
    and health education classes, support groups, health screenings
    and CPR training. These services will continue to be provided at
    the Medical Campus Drive facility on the Lansdale Hospital
    campus. Adult day services are provided at three locations in the
    community. At the present time, patients and physicians can
    continue to access all services using the current phone numbers;
    the main phone number is 215-885-8296.
