Vista
Care, a leading provider of support services for individuals with
intellectual, developmental, physical, and behavioral health
challenges, is thrilled to announce its acquisition of Lincoln
Center for Developmental Rehabilitation, a service of Memorial

major milestone in Vista Care’s mission to “serve more people
better, while keeping them in our hearts and actions at all times”
and its ongoing commitment to providing high quality services in
central and southern Illinois.
With this acquisition, Vista Care Illinois welcomes nearly 200

Supports (Self Directed Assistance and Hired Personal Support), and
Community Integrated Living Arrangement (CILA) services.
“Through conversations with individuals, current team members,
guardians, families, and community stakeholders, we look forward to
continuing to provide high quality services to the Lincoln community
and surrounding areas while strategically expanding services to meet
identified needs within the community as we serve more people
better,” stated Liz Olive, Vista Care’s Chief Executive Officer.
The newly named Lincoln Community Connections Center will welcome 48
new team members to the organization, retaining 100% of the existing
staff and leadership from LCDR who combined have hundreds of years
of experience in providing quality care, services, and support to
those in the Lincoln and surrounding communities.
