Sodexo expands in private-pay home care market in the UK
Through its 44 branch network, Prestige Nursing + Care delivers high-quality, personalized home care to seniors across the UK focusing on a private-pay model. The acquisition provides Prestige Nursing + Care access to the experience and best practices of in-home care agencies from around the world. With demand for social care services rising in the UK, Sodexo will capitalize on this growing market, bringing innovation and development potential to Prestige Nursing + Care.
The acquisition of Prestige Nursing + Care will significantly expand Sodexo's position in the UK private home care market, and builds on the company's decades-long global track record in this sector through Comfort Keepers, a Sodexo brand. Comfort Keepers is a leading network of in-home care providers for seniors and other dependent adults with more than 700 offices world-wide.
Following the acquisition, the current management team of Prestige Nursing + Care, led by Managing Director Jonathan Bruce, will continue to manage the business.
