JACKSONVILLE, Fla., May 24 /PRNewswire/ -- American Hospice is pleased to announce its acquisition of Embracing HospiceCare, a market-leading hospice program in the Atlanta Metropolitan Area.
Embracing HospiceCare has a staff of 150 dedicated employees serving nearly 300 hospice patients daily. This acquisition will provide Embracing HospiceCare with deep resources to build on and accelerate its position in the Atlanta market. The transaction provides American Hospice with a respected, quality-driven, market-leading hospice program in Atlanta, Georgia to complement its other established programs in Arizona, Oklahoma, Virginia and New Jersey.
Since 1992, American Hospice has been America’s premier hospice management company. In 2004, The Riverside Company became American Hospice’s partner in a recapitalization that established American Hospice as one of the nation’s largest hospice companies.
Based in Jacksonville, Florida, American Hospice’s corporate mission is to establish centers of excellence for hospice care nationally and attain market leadership in each of its markets. The acquisition of Embracing HospiceCare in Atlanta brings American Hospice one step closer to accomplishing that goal.
“This acquisition is a key step in our plan to grow our national footprint in current American Hospice markets and other strategic major metropolitan areas,” reports Jeff Preuss, CEO. “More steps will follow.”
