SNF in NY gets $84 million in financing
MONTICELLOAM provided $84 million in combined bridge and working capital financing to a skilled nursing facility (SNF) in New York City.
The transaction includes a $79 million bridge loan and a $5 million working capital line of credit, with a 30-month initial term.
The organization with a portfolio of over 20 health care properties used the loan proceeds to fund the acquisition of a skilled nursing facility with 280 licensed beds, expanding its existing footprint in the New York area.
“Closing this transaction highlights our dedication to supporting the skilled nursing sector with well‑structured capital solutions. We value the confidence of a returning borrower and are proud to support the continued growth of their skilled nursing portfolio,” said Joseph Borenstein, Head of the MONTICELLOAM Healthcare Bridge Lending team.
Olio, Ignite partner on a census management tool
Olio, a post-acute and behavioral health care coordination platform, introduced a census management solution for skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) in partnership with Ignite Medical Resorts.
This new capability provides SNF teams with real-time visibility into projected discharges, referral statuses, and other essential data through a shared “discharge calendar.” This replaces manual processes like spreadsheets and phone calls, improving care transitions and census management. The solution helps SNFs anticipate revenue fluctuations, optimize staffing, and enhance referral coordination, Olio’s press release noted.
Ignite Medical Resorts, which operates 28 locations in Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas and Indiana, is using Olio’s platform to streamline care coordination, with the new feature tailored to its needs.
“Now our SNF nursing, admissions, and operations teams are all working from the same information and can see what’s coming,” said Erica Dewan Kelly, Senior Vice President, Care Transitions, Ignite Medical Resorts. “This gives us better referral coordination and more control over our census without creating more work.
Launched in February 2026, the Census Management feature is part of Olio’s broader platform, which simplifies care transitions and post-discharge tracking. It also allows SNFs to build preferred networks with high-performing home health and hospice partners, improving visibility and outcomes.
Olio’s platform can also help SNFs in meeting regulatory demands by improving communication, operational efficiency and care quality, the company said.

ESI launches new platform
Evans Senior Investments (ESI) has launched a Capital Markets and Debt Advisory team. Building on more than 15 years of experience, the new division offers a competitive, process-driven approach to debt strategy, covering acquisitions, refinancings, recapitalizations, and portfolio financing.
ESI aims to fill the gap by providing clients with a structured process across its lender network to secure better pricing, terms, and execution certainty, a press release noted.
Hank Fuller, Director at ESI, emphasized the importance of guiding clients through the complexities of debt, which they previously navigated alone.
“Our clients were navigating debt alone. That gap is where we’re focused, running a disciplined, marketed process across our lender network to drive pricing, terms, and execution certainty,” said Hank Fuller, Director, Evans Senior Investments.
