About Carespring

Carespring was founded in 1986 by Barry Bortz as a clinician-driven provider, offering a continuum of services including skilled nursing, rehabilitation, memory care, assisted and independent living, and long‑term nursing in communities across Cincinnati, Dayton, and Northern Kentucky.

The organization is privately held and is notable for being led by clinicians rather than external corporate managers. It employs an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), making eligible staff part‑owners.

Carespring operates approximately 16 facilities in Ohio and Kentucky, providing nursing home and senior living services. Notable properties include Chesterwood in West Chester, OH, and multiple skilled nursing centers in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky.

Service lines include independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and specialized services such as on-site hemodialysis. Their facilities emphasize community-rich environments, for example, featuring an indoor “Main Street” at Chesterwood.

Carespring expanded its regional footprint by integrating the Hillandale Family of Communities in December 2022, reinforcing their clinician-led and community-focused model.
