HC-One acquires Ideal Carehomes
HC-One has today, 12th October 2023, announced the acquisition of Ideal Carehomes from Warwick Capital Partners and LNT Group. The acquisition includes 36 care homes in England, with a further care home expected to open in Cheltenham in September 2024.
Ideal Carehomes is a highly regarded care provider, with residents at the heart of everything they do. They pride themselves on delivering high quality care, as evidenced by their CQC ratings, award wins and the great family feedback they receive.
With a shared commitment to delivering high quality, kind care, HC-One and Ideal Carehomes look forward to growing together and learning from each other so they can continue to support residents to lead their best lives.
Ideal Carehomes and HC-One have a complementary geographic reach, with Ideal Carehomes also demonstrating they have an excellent model of developing, opening and running successful homes in a sector that is not seeing enough new builds. Working with Ideal Carehomes is a natural partnership as HC-One look to further enhance their portfolio and expand their offer and choice to people throughout their care journey.
This is a significant step in HC-One’s mission to be the first choice for families, colleagues and commissioners, serving at the heart of each of its communities.
The acquisition was made possible by the long-term support of HC-One’s owners and investors. It builds on the significant, and ongoing, investment they have enabled in frontline colleague retention and HC-One’s home refurbishments over recent years.
HC-One acquired Ideal Carehomes from Warwick Capital Partners, a global private equity and credit firm, and LNT Group.
