OPERATION EXPANSIONS	Mar. 31, 2024
Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]
OPERATION EXPANSIONS	OPERATION EXPANSIONS The expansion focus of the Company's independent subsidiaries is to purchase or lease operations that are complementary to the current operations, accretive to the business, or otherwise advance the Company's strategy. The results of all independent subsidiaries are included in the Interim Financial Statements subsequent to the date of acquisition. Acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The Company's independent subsidiaries also enter into long-term leases that may include options to purchase the facilities. As a result, from time to time, an independent real estate subsidiary will acquire the property of facilities that have previously been operated under third-party leases. 2024 Expansions During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company expanded its operations and real estate portfolio through a combination of long-term leases and a real estate purchase, with the addition of five stand-alone skilled nursing operations. Of these additions, Standard Bearer acquired the real estate of one stand-alone skilled nursing operation, which was leased back to one of the Company's independent subsidiary. Refer to Note 6, Standard Bearer, for additional information on the purchase of real estate property. These new operations added a total of 591 operational skilled nursing beds to be operated by the Company's independent subsidiaries. In connection with the new operations obtained through long-term leases, the Company did not acquire any material assets or assume any liabilities other than the tenant's post-assumption rights and obligations under the long-term lease. The Company entered into a separate operations transfer agreement with each prior operator as part of each transaction. The Company also invested in new ancillary services that are complementary to its existing businesses. Subsequent to March 31, 2024, the Company expanded its operations through a combination of long-term leases and real estate purchases, with the addition of five stand-alone skilled nursing operations, one long-term acute care hospital and two campus operations. Of these additions, Standard Bearer acquired the real estate of five of these operations, which were leased back to the Company's independent subsidiaries. Refer to Note 6, Standard Bearer, for additional information on the purchases of real estate properties. These new operations added 625 operational skilled nursing beds, 43 long-term acute care beds, and 202 operational senior living units to be operated by the Company's affiliated operating subsidiaries. 2023 Expansions During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company expanded its operations through long-term leases, with the addition of 19 stand-alone skilled nursing operations. These new operations added a total of 1,764 operational skilled nursing beds operated by the Company's independent subsidiaries. In connection with the new operations obtained through long-term leases, the Company did not acquire any material assets or assume any liabilities other than the tenant's post-assumption rights and obligations under the long-term lease. The Company entered into a separate operations transfer agreement with each prior operator as part of each transaction. The Company’s acquisition strategy has been focused on identifying both opportunistic and strategic acquisitions within its target markets that offer strong opportunities for return. The operations added by the Company are frequently underperforming financially and can have regulatory and clinical challenges to overcome. Financial information, especially with underperforming operations, is often inadequate, inaccurate or unavailable. Consequently, the Company believes that prior operating results are not a meaningful representation of the Company’s current operating results or indicative of the integration potential of its newly acquired independent subsidiaries. The assets added during the three months ended March 31, 2024 were not material operations to the Company individually or in the aggregate. Accordingly, pro forma financial information is not presented. These additions have been included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Company, and the operating results have been included in the condensed consolidated statements of income of the Company since the date the Company gained effective control.
