Aria Care Partners Expands Its Network with Sanford Acquisition

In a strategic move, Aria Care Partners has successfully acquired Sanford Dental, Sanford Vision, and Dynamic Mobile Dentistry, collectively known as Sanford. This significant acquisition marks a pivotal expansion for Aria in the Southeast, allowing it to enhance its service offerings to skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) across Georgia and Alabama. Headquartered in Macon, Georgia, Sanford has built a reputation for delivering on-site dental and vision care services to around 200 SNFs in the region. Moreover, they offer essential dental insurance plans designed specifically for the residents of these facilities.

The acquisition aims to integrate Sanford’s operations into Aria’s existing framework, enabling streamlined administrative processes and elevated technology support. Current clients utilizing Sanford's services can expect a seamless transition with minimal disruption, as Aria has pledged to retain all existing care providers, account staff, and client-facing teams. This continuity of care will ensure that residents and facility staff do not experience any interruption in service levels.

The acquisition not only consolidates two companies with strong complimentary capabilities but also introduces a range of expanded onsite services. By bringing together Aria's expertise in optometry, audiology, and podiatry with Sanford's dental and vision capabilities, skilled nursing facilities can now benefit from a more comprehensive service offering under a single vendor. This consolidation allows for enhanced convenience and a more unified care coordination experience for these facilities.

Aria Care Partners' infrastructure is robust, featuring experienced Chief Medical Officers across various specialties who provide oversight and support from a Chief Clinical Officer. The company is committed to delivering not only quality medical care but also comprehensive administrative and compliance support to its medical professionals. As part of the integration process, residents will also gain access to an expanded array of dental coverage, vision plans, and hearing services, enriching their overall care experience.

“Sanford is an excellent fit with our program and brings a strong track record serving SNF communities in Georgia and Alabama,” remarked John Griscavage, CEO of Aria Care Partners. The acquisition demonstrates the company’s commitment to enhancing its service footprint and its ongoing efforts to meet the evolving needs of the communities it serves.

Additionally, John Neel, CEO of Sanford, expressed enthusiasm about the merger, stating, “We are excited to be joining forces with Aria Care Partners. Our customers will benefit from expanded service capabilities and offerings, further elevating the standard of care available to them.”

As Aria Care Partners continues to innovate and adapt, the acquisition of Sanford is a testament to its growth strategies and optimization of services within the skilled nursing sector. This integration represents a significant step towards achieving Aria's mission of enriching the quality of life for residents and ensuring that families feel confident in the care provided.
