Procura, a leading provider of home care software in the United States, Canada and Australia, is pleased to announce the acquisition of U.S. based, ContinuLink Health Technologies (ContinuLink). The acquisition combines one of the fastest growing web-based, SaaS software solutions for home health care with Procura’s extensive industry experience and deep understanding of the unique needs of agencies from start-ups through to franchise-based organizations. Serving the full spectrum of home healthcare organizations in the Medicare, Medicaid, and Private Duty markets, the combined companies will deliver a range of innovative, industry-leading solutions that meet the needs of agencies of all sizes.

“The ContinuLink team has built a sophisticated, reliable and simple software solution that complements Procura’s goal to enable better patient care and satisfaction,” says Warren Brown, President of Procura. “Our companies share similar values; we both always put our customers first and are committed to delivering leading-edge solutions that enable organizations to focus on the business of delivering care. Together, we offer our customers the same solutions and support that they have come to depend on as well as the resources, experience and methodologies of the combined company.”
