Origins Behavioral Health (headquartered in South Padre Island, Texas soon to be located in West Palm Beach, Florida) will acquire two treatment sites from Caron Treatment Centers (headquartered in Pennsylvania). The Hanley Center in West Palm Beach, Florida, and Gate Lodge in Vero Beach, Florida., will add over 100 beds to Origin’s current capacity of around 80 beds.

Origins is clearly on course to be a big player on the East Coast and increase its service offerings through acquisitions and organic growth. Less than half of current patients are from inside Texas with the rest skewed to the West Coast. This recent round hopes to change that. The Hanley Center has a 30-year history and is a noteworthy acquisition. 

Expansion fever is in the air since there are at least 10 acres of available land on the Hanley property zoned for treatment that has yet to be developed. They are in the process of moving all corporate functions to West Palm Beach and Robert Park, Origins’ longtime executive director has relocated to Florida and has assumed the executive director role at Hanley Center..

Origins is looking to partner with other organizations that are like-minded and are leaders in the evolving business of addiction treatment.
