Four nursing homes in North Jersey will lose public funds if the owner who just pleaded guilty to fraud fails to sell the facility within the next three months, the state secretary announced Monday.
State Secretary Kevin Walsh pleaded guilty last month after owner and former CEO of Hoboken Kevin Breslin pleaded guilty last month to federal fraud charges for mishandling public funds at Wisconsin nursing homes. He said he is moving from the Medicaid program to stop the health of the atrium.
Without Medicaid funds or new owners, facilities in the New Jersey Atrium are not financially viable and the hundreds of residents will have to be relocated. They are the Avalon Rehabilitation and Care Centre in Wayne, Atrium Atrium Care in Wayne, Atrium Senior Living in Park Ridge, and the Acute Care atrium at Park Ridge.
