In this video clip, Scott White, president of Mainstreet Health Investments, a Senior Housing Forum partner, discusses where the company may be heading in the future. White unequivocally states, “We will have an operating business. Because it’s all interrelated; build the building, own the building  . . . the technology in the building, and the operations in the building. 

“On our team, we have a registered nurse, we have clinicians, and we have professionals that are familiar with patient care.” He notes that they are helping percolate an operating business for Mainstreet.

But he quickly notes that they will continue working with third party operators. He says, “Operating the business in-house will never be our entire business. We will continue to work with third party operators. There are so many exceptional, exceptional third party operators out there and we are proud to work with them.”

In discussing the company’s future in Canada, White says, “In an earlier iteration, we had a portfolio of Canadian assets and I think, given the right opportunity, you should expect to see we’ll own assets there as well.

“We have started to talk with some people up there about the transitional care model. They do not really have it, though they acknowledge they need it. I think that’s going to be a next frontier as we build out from the United States. There’s a good chance you’ll see us and others develop there as well.”
