The Ensign Group has acquired the operations of two skilled nursing facilities in the greater Denver, Colorado area. Brighton Care Center in Brighton comprises 108 beds and sits less than 15 miles away from the other facility, Malley Transitional Care Center, a 162-bed skilled nursing facility in Northglenn. They will be subject to a long-term triple-net lease, and Endura Healthcare LLC, Ensign’s Colorado-based subsidiary, will take over operations.

This Colorado acquisition brings Ensign’s growing portfolio to 271 healthcare operations across 13 states. According to Levin Pro LTC, last month, The Ensign Group and its captive REIT Standard Bearer Healthcare REIT also acquired Prisma Health Lila Doyle, a 120-bed skilled nursing facility in South Carolina.
