Health Systems as Sellers in Three Transactions
Cain Brothers advised on a trio of senior care transactions involving health systems as sellers, which could be a growing trend, particularly among any resource-constrained systems. Conversely, other systems may see the need to own skilled nursing beds in the future in order to control the transfer of their post-acute patients to SNFs and free up acute care beds. The first deal involved Bristol Health, a small health system in central Connecticut, selling Ingraham Manor, a skilled nursing facility in Bristol, near Hartford. Cain Brothers served as sell-side advisor on the deal, which closed on October 21. Built in 1987, Ingraham Manor has 128 beds. Bristol Health had noted there were... Read More »

Senior Care Campus Components Sell to Separate Buyers
Senwell Senior Investment Advisors facilitated two separate transactions involving the assisted living and skilled nursing components of a senior care campus in Mansfield, Ohio. The seller, a local not-for-profit, faced significant operational and financial challenges, prompting an urgent need for a transition. Senwell was engaged to identify solutions that would preserve resident care and avoid closure. Despite limited financial and operational information available, partners were identified for both assets. The assisted living community was sold to a regional assisted living operator specializing in Medicaid Waiver programs that intends to reposition the entire campus to serve waiver... Read More »
