The nursing home is operated by Center Management Group, a New York company that bought the 273 bed facility and six other senior-care locations from the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.

The facility’s license was revoked by the state of Pennsylvania after an August inspection found problems. The facility was operating during the appeal process. The PA Attorney General’s Office would neither confirm nor deny the existence of an investigation.
