Hartford Care Group has taken over the management of 16 care homes across England and North Wales from Select Healthcare Group.
The move, which follows the acquisition of Select Healthcare Group by Foundation Partners and Deer Capital, adds an additional 801 bedrooms to Hartford Care’s portfolio, which now comprises 45 homes and 2,327 bedrooms.
Hartford Care chief executive Kevin Shaw said: “The acquisition of 16 homes from Select Healthcare Group is another important milestone in our ambitious growth plan for Hartford Care. With over 2,500 dedicated team members, our expansion into the Midlands, Essex, North Wales and further into Kent enables us to offer our expert care and ‘home from home’ environment to more residents in new communities. We will be working closely alongside Select Healthcare Group to ensure a smooth transition as we bring the homes into the Hartford Care family.”
Select Healthcare Group chief executive Brett Bernard commented: “The transfer of the homes to Hartford Care Group is a logical step and allows us to focus on our growth strategy for the Select Specialist Care. We wish Kevin and the team success, and I know that our outgoing team and residents will be well cared for.”
