Nursing facilities placed into receivership

Eighteen nursing homes and one assisted living center operated by the for-profit Skyline Health Care were placed into receivership earlier this week, following a hearing in Hughes County Court, Pierre. The court appointed Black Hills Receiver, LLC as the receiver, which is affiliated with Golden Living Centers, the previous owner/operator of the facilities.

Wanda Prince, RN, President of Black Hills Receiver, LLC, explained that next steps include creating a work group to develop further operational plans.

The 19 impacted facilities consist of 1,800 employees who provide care for approximately 900 residents. The facilities include:
