Radics brings almost three decades of home health experience to his new role.
Fortis Home Health and Hospice announced that Rob Radics will be joining the company as its CEO.
Radics has almost 30 years of experience in the home health and hospice space, having recently served as president of Home Health and Hospice of Aveanna Healthcare.
"We are thrilled to welcome Rob to the Fortis team at this important point in the company's evolution," said Buddy Gumina, founder and managing partner of Grant Avenue Capital, a lower middle market healthcare-focused private equity firm.
"His extensive home-based care background, commitment to clinical excellence, and proven leadership will help advance Fortis' mission of building a leading home-based care company that is renowned for its outstanding patient care and dedicated workforce."
With Radics as Fortis CEO, the company hopes to expand through investing in its clinical and leadership teams, as well as strategic acquisitions, partnerships, and "de novo launches," according to Gumina.
Before working Aveanna Healthcare, Radics served as CEO of Five Points Healthcare, which he founded in 2011 and later sold to the former organization in 2020. While serving as president of Aveanna Healthcare, he managed a $250 million annual budget for 92 locations across 15 states, along with overseeing the completion of five acquisitions.
"Grant Avenue has strategically cemented Fortis' position as a high-integrity, experienced provider of choice for patients and families, and as partner of choice for our talented Fortis team," Radics said in a statement. "I am incredibly proud to join the company as it embarks on its next phase of growth and advancement."
