The Ensign Group added a large post-acute care and senior living campus in Dallas, Texas to its growing portfolio of 234 total healthcare facilities. Located on 26 acres, the campus runs the gamut of senior care services and includes 125 skilled nursing beds, 81 independent living units, 36 assisted living units and 26 memory care units. It operated as a not-for-profit organization for over 50 years, but significant operational challenges forced the owner, Presbyterian Communities and Services, to sell the community.

Ensign’s Texas-based subsidiary, Keystone Care LLC, will take over operations and change the community’s name to The Villages of Dallas. Occupancy was 79% at the time of the sale, but the facility is still expected to be operationally accretive to 2018 earnings. The purchase price wasn’t disclosed.
