Purchase will expand home health care access and options for Northern Virginia residents
Lifematters, a greater DC metro provider of private pay home health care services, announced today that it has acquired Care Options, a respected care management, home health care and support services provider. This purchase is expected to improve and expand the service options for “aging in place” available to Maryland, the District of Columbia and Northern Virginia residents and their families.
With 38 years of combined care management and in-home care experience, Lifematters and Care Options, together, will help local seniors realize a better quality of life while aging in-home. Lifematters is the largest employer based home care company in the region.
The official transfer of ownership took place on February 21, 2016. The Braff Group, led by Managing Director Mark Kulik, originated the transaction and served as the exclusive mergers and acquisitions advisor to Care Options. The Lifematters management team is now busy preparing to roll out additional new services during 2016.
“When I founded Care Options three decades ago, I had the vision to provide an integrated approach to care for aging and disabled adults in a way that enables them to live fuller, richer lives,” said Founder Ann O’Neil. “I couldn’t feel better about passing the baton of Care Options services to the Lifematters team. They are a quality organization who share my passion for delivering best-in-class services to every person we serve.”
