Cincinnati-based CommuniCare Health Services became the second largest provider of skilled nursing care in Maryland when it acquired six facilities in the state, and one in West Virginia. The transaction added over 900 beds to its portfolio, which includes nearly 15 post-acute care facilities and nearly 2,000 beds in Maryland, and 35 facilities in four other states. All of the seven acquired facilities were formerly White Oak Healthcare facilities. For CommuniCare, which as of September 30, 2015 operates 36 properties for Omega Healthcare Properties, this is a big step outside of its center of operations in Ohio, where it currently operates 31 skilled nursing and rehab facilities.
