Florida Headquartered HealthTrust LLC to Sell Canadian Division

December 13, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Sarasota, FL—Alan Plush, Senior Partner of HealthTrust, LLC, announced from his firm’s Sarasota-based corporate headquarters that they are selling their Canadian division to Altus Group Income Fund. The HealthTrust Canadian division is located in Toronto with a western office in Calgary.

“We have met and worked with a lot of really great people in Canada,” said Plush, “but due to an ever increasing demand for our services in the senior housing and the skilled nursing industries here in America, we have made the decision to concentrate 100% of our effort stateside.” According to Plush, HealthTrust provides valuation, litigation, consulting and tax services for more than 1,000 properties annually.

"We are excited about the added expertise that HealthTrust brings to Altus," said Gary Yeoman, Chief Executive Officer of Altus Group. Altus has a Canadian national network of 30 offices in 23 cities throughout Canada and 6 offices in the UK.
