Overview of Linn Health & Rehabilitation

Linn Health & Rehabilitation provides nursing home and skilled nursing care, assisted living, independent living, and memory care in the Six Corners neighborhood of East Providence, Rhode Island. Nursing home and skilled nursing care include licensed nursing care on site around the clock. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps their own apartment.

Independent living offers private living with community services and no daily care. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. Having these care levels in one community may suit a resident whose needs could grow over time and who may be able to move between care levels without leaving the community.

The home has 84 beds. Its 80% occupancy rate means the facility was not full when the occupancy was recorded. Payment options include Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, giving families coverage through public programs or the option to pay directly.

A Walk Score of 74 places the area in the very walkable band, meaning most errands can be done on foot. A resident who no longer drives can still get out independently for nearby errands. Pets are allowed, so residents may keep pets in the community.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Rhode Island

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Rhode Island?

Assisted living in Rhode Island supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

Does Rhode Island Medicaid cover memory care?

Rhode Island Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Rhode Island) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
