Kindred, which manages the nursing home, said the organizations decided to close the facility after failing to secure a buyer.

The nursing home is on the campus of Fox Hill Village, an all-inclusive living community for retirees that offers on-site healthcare services provided by Massachusetts General Hospital.

Kindred will coordinate with the state to finalize the closure plan. The nursing home will shut down by Sept. 13, according to the Boston Business Journal.
