Nursing Home Updates

Earlier this month it was reported that the Nursing Home recently sold by the county was being fined. The News-Gazette listed out the violations as occurring when the County still owned the facility. From the News-Gazette:

Five area nursing homes fined for violations found during inspections
Five nursing homes in the area have been fined in connection with recent violations found in state inspections, according to an Illinois Department of Public Health report for the first quarter of the year.

The list includes the former Champaign County-owned nursing home in Urbana (now University Rehab Center) and the former Heartland of Champaign (now Champaign Living Center at 309 E. Springfield Ave., C). Both are now under common ownership as a result of recent purchases.

The former county nursing home was fined $25,000 for a type A violation noted on a Nov. 28, 2018, inspection. A type A violation is the second-most serious violation category in which a substantial probability that death or serious mental or physical harm either will occur or has occurred.

The former county nursing home was also fined $2,200 for a type B violation found in a Dec. 19, 2018, inspection.

In other news related to the new owner of the old County nursing home and other nursing homes in the area, Rothner linked companies also own and have been shuffling around ownership of the Inman building in downtown Champaign that serves a retirement community and offers senior care. From the News-Gazette this week:

Inman Place gets new owner; no changes expected
Inman Place, a senior independent living community in downtown Champaign, is under new ownership...

Inman Place was sold March 29 for $2.95 million to the new Evanston-based Champaign Atied LLC, doing business as Inman Place Senior Living, according to county and state records.

The seller was Lincolnwood-based East University LLC, a corporation managed by Brickyard Bank, also of Lincolnwood.

Brickyard Bank became the mortgagee in possession of the Inman property in 2010 after filing a foreclosure complaint against the previous owners.

The bank's parent organization, Brickyard Bancorp, is owned by members of the Rothner family, also part-owners of three nursing homes in Champaign-Urbana...

The corporate addresses for those three nursing homes are all the same Evanston address listed for other Rothner businesses and for Champaign Atied LLC.
