A well-known and highly respected domiciliary care agency located in Derbyshire has been sold to Care Sante Group, advised by Redwoods Dowling Kerr.
Valley Care Direct was founded in 2010 and during that time the business has earned a truly enviable reputation for offering a wide range of professional, individual care packages to service users who are living in their own homes.
Valley Care Direct offers a wide range of both long and short-term personal and domestic care for adults and the elderly including personal and medical care, management of medication, meal preparation, mental health, dementia, physical and learning difficulties.
The agency currently delivers care to over 70 service users, providing approximately 850 hours of care on a weekly basis and was rated as “Good” across all areas by CQC at the last inspection.
Furthermore, the business has forged strong relationships with several external providers including the local authority, NHS and private individuals residing in their own homes.
Valley Care Direct enjoys regular referrals and word of mouth recommendations because of its excellent reputation.
The owners wanted to sell the business as they decided to retire, and they instructed Redwoods Dowling Kerr in the sale. Using our bespoke buyers intelligence and marketing campaign, Valley Care received a strong amount of interest and four offers were submitted.
The buyer was Care Sante Group, an existing operator in the healthcare sector who saw the business as an ideal bolt-on acquisition.
Upon completion of the sale, the vendor said: “Redwoods Dowling Kerr have completed the sale of our domiciliary care business.
“Asif was our contact and he was always very positive, informative and had the knowledge to guide us through the sale without any problems. Thank you to all the team.”
The buyer said: “Care Sante is delighted to welcome Valley Care into our group. Care Sante is operated by a team of experienced homecare professionals, which knows this industry very well and is committed to the critical work that our care workers do to help people to continue to live at home.
“My team has been impressed with the service received by the Redwoods Dowling Kerr team, and Asif Musa in particular, for the service they have provided during our recent purchase of a domiciliary care business.
“We would like to thank RDK for the efficient and professional way they have dealt with us throughout the entire buying process. We recommend RDK to anyone thinking of buying a healthcare business.
“We will definitely use RDK for future domiciliary care acquisitions and look forward to working with them again soon.”
Healthcare Negotiator Asif Musa said: “It has been a pleasure working with our clients and I wish them all the best for the future.”
