• The Saga of Genesis HealthCare Continues

    by | Jan 22, 2026 1:55 pm | Acquisitions

    Genesis HealthCare was once one of the largest and most successful skilled nursing companies. But it grew too quickly, made some bad investments over the years (did we mention the billion-dollar merger with The MultiCare Companies?), and it always played the leverage game, whether with leases or debt, and usually both. Last summer, it filed for... Read More »

County-Owned Skilled Nursing Facility Gets More Than A Facelift

County-Owned Skilled Nursing Facility Gets More Than A Facelift

by | Aug 28, 2018 3:52 pm | Developments, Financings

Usually we hear of counties selling their unprofitable skilled nursing facilities, but not this time. A county in Pennsylvania is building a brand-new facility to replace its existing 80-year old SNF, with the help of a $34 million loan from the USDA. Located in Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, the old facility was originally built in 1938, with additions in the 1970s and 1990s, and was experiencing higher and higher maintenance costs. Owned by Centre County, the facility was also operated by the county until 2013, when a not-for-profit board took over, leasing the property for $1 a year. Since then, the not-for-profit has improved occupancy, with a 75% Medicaid census, and made the facility... Read More »

More recently, in 2011, the organization expanded on a new campus in Osceola with a 40-bed skilled nursing facility and a 20-bed... Read More »
