Eduro Healthcare Acquires 2 Facilities in Billings; Montana Total Now 7

Posted on by [email protected]

 

June 1st, 2023 | Billings, MT

Eduro Healthcare has acquired two additional facilities in Billings, MT, bringing the state total to seven. This follows the recent acquisition of the Eastern Montana Veterans Home in March, which shows promising growth in the state. The cumulative 310 additional licensed beds in the state offer Eduro ample opportunity to continue serving the residents of Montana.

Eduro has a strong history of operations in Montana, first entering the state in 2018 with a facility in Butte. The success in Butte prompted the other additions, particularly the two veterans homes that the state requested for Eduro to take over.

“We are thrilled to partner once again with the team at Legacy on these two Billings, Montana assets,” Managing Director Michael Bewsey said. “They have proven to be a great resource to us in many aspects and most importantly a great transactional partner. We are excited to build upon their stellar reputation as we incorporate these two buildings into the Eduro Montana family. Montana continues to be a top acquisition target for our team, and we look forward to continued and immediate growth in the state.”

The two facilities have rebranded under new names:

Eduro Healthcare Adds Second VA Building in Montana

Posted on by [email protected]

March 1, 2023

Eduro Healthcare assumed operations of the Eastern Montana Veterans Home (EMVH) in Glendive, MT. This is the second veterans home they will be operating in Montana, and the fifth skilled nursing facility for them in the state. The EMVH has 80 Medicare-licensed beds, including 16 special care unit beds, and has been in operation since 1995.

Managing Director Michael Bewsey expressed his excitement about the new addition; “Our team is committed to the Veterans of Montana and we have built one of the best teams in the country to support each facility we operate. Our company has thrived during one of the most operationally difficult times in the history of the industry, and I give our various teams all the credit. We are proud of the relationship we have built with DPHHS and are honored that they continue to trust Eduro to meet the fiscal needs of the State of Montana as well as the physical needs of the Veterans we serve.”

Eduro was selected by the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services (DPHHS) to open a brand new veterans home in December of 2020. The Southwest Montana Veterans Home (SWMVH) in Butte has seen great success in those two years, including receiving the highest levels of employee satisfaction among Montana’s veteran homes and any state-run facility surveyed*. DPHHS Director Charles Brereton commented on Eduro’s qualification for the additional state facility; “DPHHS has been impressed with Eduro Healthcare’s management of our Veterans Home in Butte, and we are looking forward to expanding this partnership to Glendive.”

Eduro Grows in Montana with Two-Building Acquisition

Posted on by [email protected]

HELENA, Montana, September 3rd, 2020–Eduro Healthcare announced yesterday that they acquired two skilled nursing facilities in Montana. Cooney Healthcare and Rehabilitation is an 80-bed location situated in Helena on the St. Peter’s Health Regional Medical Center campus. Elkhorn Healthcare and Rehabilitation is a 70-bed facility located in Clancy, just 20 minutes from Helena. These two locations add to Eduro’s presence in the state, which was established when they acquired Butte facility, Copper Ridge Nursing and Rehab back in 2018.

 

The news follows some good publicity Eduro already received in the state when Copper Ridge administrator Brenna Anderson was voted a “local hero” for her quick preventative measures taken at the start of the coronavirus outbreak. Anderson was one of 12 people nominated for the recognition for “braving the coronavirus every day to keep the community as strong and healthy as possible.” (Full article)

 

The deal marks Eduro’s third and fourth additions to their portfolio this year. Michael Bewsey, an experienced healthcare executive and managing partner at Eduro, commented on the promising opportunities following the deal.

“We are excited because these facilities are already clinically and operationally sound, and with the added support that Eduro can provide from behind the scenes, we believe they will just keep improving.”

CareTrust REIT (NASDAQ:CTRE) provided the financial backing for the deal, and saw a 4.34% bump in share prices after announcing the two new locations yesterday. The transaction was the first to be started and closed during the pandemic, and COO Dave Sedgwick commented on the smooth transition facilitated by Eduro; “Eduro made it easy for the seller, who cared about the facilities and their legacy, to get comfortable with the sale.” (Full article)

Eduro Adds Skilled Nursing Facility in Aurora, CO

Posted on by [email protected]

AURORA, Colorado, July 1, 2020 — Eduro Healthcare acquired another skilled nursing facility in CO. The Springs at St. Andrew’s Village is a 58-bed facility, and joins Eduro’s two other CO facilities, located in Lakewood and Parker.

Managing Partner Michael Bewsey commented, “This building was an exciting acquisition for us as we are combining an excellent physical plant with outstanding clinical care in an already strong Eduro market. This building and team will seamlessly integrate into our Colorado platform and be a top performer.” While Eduro is now managing the skilled nursing portion of St. Andrew’s village, management of the assisted and independent living units will remain the same.

Following a few years of rapid growth, Eduro hadn’t added any new locations within the past year. COVID-19 has understandably affected many aspects of the industry, but Eduro’s recent acquisition of The Springs demonstrates their strong position that enables continued growth. This puts them back on the radar as one of the companies that has adapted well to the uncertainty of the coronavirus pandemic.

The safety and welfare of our residents and your loved one is our top priority. We are making proactive measures to prevent and, if necessary, defend against the virus through strong monitoring, education, awareness, prevention, and management.

 

Our Facility is following the recommendations of the CDC on prevention steps, including following strict handwashing procedures, and in many circumstances, wearing gowns and gloves when interacting with residents who are sick. In addition, our facility is in close contact with the local and state health department and are following their guidance.

 

Currently, the CDC, Local and state health departments are recommending extra precautions to prevent the spread of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) to older members of our communities and those with chronic medical conditions who are at highest risk of hospitalization and death from infection due to COVID-19. As a result, we are limiting access to our building and all visitation until further notice. Please note that this limitation is not a ban on all visitation but means that visitors and vendors will not be allowed to enter our facility, except in specific circumstances, such as end-of-life circumstances or when it is essential for a resident’s care or emotional well-being.

As such, we will be screening anyone whose access is considered essential, including employees, and restricting entry into the facility based on the most up-to-date CDC and CMS guidelines.
