PLANO, Texas, June 5, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- LifeCare Holdings, LCC (together with its subsidiary LifeCare Health Partners) announced today the acquisition of Care First Home Health Care and EverCare Health Services, home health care agencies based in Las Vegas.

"With the changing landscape of the healthcare industry, is it imperative that healthcare organizations continue to adapt and innovate," says Jay Bowman, co-owner of Care First. "By partnering with LifeCare, Care First and EverCare have gained a strategic partner both on the local and national level to continue transforming the way individuals receive care throughout the care continuum." Bowman and co-owner Shane Flynn are staying with the company and assuming new roles post-acquisition.
