Massachusetts nursing homes closing
As the death toll of nursing homes continues to rise across the state, Sandpiper healthcare has been added to the list of hospice homes.
After Skyline healthcare left many homes in the industry swimming in debt and all but abandoned ship, many had been left managed by other more efficient homes. In the case of Skyline homes in Massachusetts, Vero healthcare stepped in to try and reign in some of the chaos left by Skyline
Of course, managing a nursing home is much more lucrative than the actual purchasing of one, as you can be paid to "manage it", without absorbing all of its debts and money management issues.
Bedford Gardens and Rockdale nursing home in New Bedford are the first expected to see their doors close. Bedford Village also in New Bedford, is slated to close after those two, later in the month.
The last closures of the 5 nursing homes, being managed by a group that also has ties to homes in Boston, are closing as well. Highland Manor in Fall River, is a small home with few beds and not many staff members, it was is in a good location though, central between both Saint Anne's and Charlton Hospital.
Dighton Rehab of Dighton, Massachusetts has been in a niche area without any real competition in the area, a down fall as well as one of it's more profitable points, is expected to close last.
As more and more residence become displaced we continue to see a uptick in home health care and assisted living business boom.
Which homes will be the next to get a terminal notice is still undecided, but there will be more closures this year but also a few openings. The next to close, well I have my guesses but will share another time.
