Board of Seashore Gardens Living Center reaches agreement to sell home

Seamless ownership transition for residents and staff planned with Atlas Healthcare Group

 

GALLOWAY TWP., NJ — The Board of Seashore Gardens Living Center announced today that an agreement has been reached to sell the home to Atlas Healthcare Group.

The Board cited fiscal challenges, particularly the persistent and increasing gap between Medicaid reimbursement rates and the cost of caring for residents, as a reason for the sale.

These challenges were exacerbated by the pandemic, which imposed significant additional costs associated with protecting residents and staff. COVID-19 led to a sharp reduction in revenue due to a declining population of residents staying at skilled nursing facilities.

Persistent staffing shortages also have limited the number of residents Seashore Gardens Living Center has been able to accept, thereby further reducing revenues. Similar reasons were cited as challenges for other senior care facilities across the country.

“Simply put, a single home provider, such as ours, doesn’t have the long-term resources to weather this perfect storm,” said Martin H. Klein, President and CEO of Seashore Gardens Living Center. “We decided the best option for our residents and staff was to transfer ownership to an organization with the scale and resources to uphold the high standards for which we are known.”

Atlas Healthcare is a patient-centered organization that includes in its mission to provide a continuum of health services in a safe and welcoming environment that respects Jewish values, traditions, and lifestyles and that emphasizes quality of life and human dignity.

“As the owner/operator of Atlas Healthcare, we are committed to providing the same high quality of care for which Seashore Gardens has been known all these years,” said Atlas Healthcare CEO Phil Bak.

The sale will not include Seashore Elder Housing or the Seashore Gardens Foundation. This will enable Seashore Gardens Foundation to continue to provide programming and services without the same restrictions and regulations.

“We have a rich history in Jewish philanthropy and enriching elder lives,” said Rich Cohen, president, Seashore Gardens Foundation. “We will continue that legacy in this next chapter of our storied history. The Foundation will be expanding to serve the elder community at large.”

The Foundation’s core priorities will be in the areas of Alzheimer’s and dementia services and outreach, intergenerational programs, education and resources for caregivers and elder care professionals.

Seashore Gardens Living Center will continue operations as a separate entity from the Foundation. “We are looking forward to working with Atlas Healthcare Group and know this will provide a bright future for our residents and staff,” said Alysia Price, executive director of Seashore Gardens Living Center.
