Texas-Based Operator Establishes Footprint in Oklahoma

Built in 1996, Oxford Springs Assisted Living comprises around 25 units with 29 beds, with the smaller size of the community creating operational challenges. There was a competitive bidding environment, with the ultimate buyer being a Texas-based operator that focuses on AL communities ranging in size from 25 to 60... Read More »

The word from the JP Morgan Healthcare Conference, which kicked off in San Francisco this week, is that M&A activity in the biopharma/life sciences space will likely grow in 2025 after a relative downturn in 2024.
