St. Clare-Newport

What St. Clare-Newport does

St. Clare-Newport is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) senior care community located at 309 Spring Street, Newport, Rhode Island, operating as a healthcare ministry of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Providence. Founded in 1909 by the Daughters of the Holy Spirit, the organization delivers a continuum of care that includes adult day health, assisted living (with studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartments), skilled nursing care, secure memory care for Alzheimer's and related dementias, short-term rehabilitation, and outpatient rehabilitation services. Its primary customers are seniors aged 70 and older in Newport County and Aquidneck Island, plus community-dwelling adults aged 55+ served through a partnership with PACE Rhode Island. Revenue is generated through managed-services payments from private pay, Medicare, Medicaid, and long-term care insurance, supplemented by donations, planned gifts, memorials, and corporate matching contributions processed through a Director of Development. The organization employs more than 100 staff and is recognized among the best nursing homes on prominent state and national listings.

The operating model is facility-based and clinically intensive. Care is delivered 24/7 by registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, certified nursing assistants, medical technicians, social workers, chaplains, and food-safety-certified chefs, with registered dietitians, pharmacists, and therapy consultants on call. Distinctive physical assets include a private saltwater aquatherapy pool, a full gym with a simulated apartment for activities-of-daily-living retraining, secure memory-care patios, and family training programs. The clinical differentiator is a low resident-to-staff ratio supported by research-based dementia-care training.

The go-to-market approach is sales-led through a Director of Admissions and Marketing, using free care consultations, downloadable applications, a website, a Facebook presence, and direct outreach to families. Referrals flow through partnerships with PACE Rhode Island, hospitals, other nursing facilities, home health providers, and community organizations including CareLink (a co-founded Rhode Island senior care MSO), LeadingAgeRI, and the Roman Catholic Diocese of Providence. The Daughters of the Holy Spirit retired from operations in 2013, and the organization is now governed by a Corporation Board chaired by the Bishop of Providence, with an Advisory Board providing additional leadership oversight.
