We remain steadfast in our focus of delivering the superior patient experience and clinical outcomes that have quickly established CRC as a leader in the post-acute industry,” said Rehan Azhar, Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer of CRC.

“CRC has done an extraordinary job of establishing itself as one of the premier clinical providers serving the post-acute sector since Omar and Rehan founded the business three years ago,” said Seth Pearson, Managing Director at York Private Equity. “Our investment aligns with York’s strategy of backing founders, management teams, and their businesses in the healthcare services sector to create opportunities for superior clinical outcomes, accelerate existing organic growth plans, enter new service lines, and expand into new geographies. We fully support CRC’s ultimate goal of helping more patients and delivering the care they need to get them home healthier and more functional.”
