Alan Parrish, born in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, is a graduate of East Carolina University, with a BSBA degree in Accounting. As well as being a veteran of the long-term healthcare industry for more than 28 years, Mr. Parrish is a Certified Public Accountant.

Mr. Parrish started his career in the healthcare industry when he joined Progressive Medical Group, Inc., in 1979 as a staff accountant. Progressive Medical Group Inc. owned and operated 33 nursing facilities and provided data processing services to over 120 clients throughout the country.

Progressive Medical Group was acquired by Beverly Enterprises in 1980 and soon after Mr. Parrish was promoted to the position of Assistant Controller of Beverly Enterprises Eastern Division. The Eastern Division grew from 16 facilities with 2,492 beds to 180 facilities with 22,233 beds. Revenues grew from $33 million to $356 million.

Mr. Parrish was appointed Director of Operations Support and Budgets for the Eastern Division in 1982, with management responsibilities for internal accounting and financial reporting with a large decentralized field accounting group. He also managed the accounts receivable collections department and budget preparation for all the Eastern Division 180 facilities.

After his success at the Eastern Division, in 1986 Mr. Parrish was promoted to Corporate Budget Director of Beverly Enterprises, which included the responsibility of the budgeting process for all of Beverly Enterprises 1,200 facilities. Mr. Parrish was the prime architect in the design and implementation of the financial training course used by every department head and Executive Director of all 1,200 facilities.

In 1990, Mr. Parrish was an integral part of the group of close associates involved in the formation of Liberty Healthcare. He served as the Chief Financial Officer for this organization from inception to 1998, after which he was promoted to President of Liberty Healthcare. During the term Mr. Parrish served as CFO, he was responsible for all aspects of financial management. He secured over $130,000,000 in financing as the company grew from the original 18 facilities to 28 facilities. In 1996 the original 18 facilities were sold with a $40,000,000 profit to the shareholders on an original $3,000,000 investment.

After Mr. Parrish was promoted to President of the organization, Liberty Healthcare through affiliates such as American Senior Living L.P. continued to grow to control 42 facilities. The facilities continue to improve both financially and operationally. Under the leadership of Mr. Parrish the company maintained the high quality of patient care that it had established, while still improving the profitability of the operations, even through a tough regulatory and financial environment, when many long-term companies failed.

In early 2006 American Senior Living L.P. signed an agreement to sell 18 facilities for $124,000,000. At the consummation of the transaction the investors of ASL have recognize an annual return on their investment of almost 40%.

Mr. Parrish left Liberty Healthcare at the end of March 2006, and along with William T. Filippone, former COO of ASL, formed Selah Management Group, LLC and Selah SeniorCare, LLC. Selah SeniorCare was to acquire and manage skilled nursing and senior living facilities.
