DALLAS, Texas—Elara Caring, a national provider of home-based care, announced that Ananth Mohan, the company’s former chief operating officer, has been appointed chief executive officer. He succeeds Scott Powers, who is leaving the company after nearly six years as CEO.
"Under Powers’s leadership, Elara Caring evolved into one of the most trusted and integrated providers of high-acuity care in the home," the company said in a news statement. "He helped unite the organization under a shared mission, strengthened its infrastructure and led significant growth across clinical and non-clinical services, technology and talent. His tenure has been marked by a deep commitment to delivering compassionate, high-quality care wherever people call home."
“Scott helped lay the foundation for the Elara we are today—strong, united, and purpose-driven,” said Mohan. “I’m honored to step into this role and accelerate our growth and expand and enhance the impact of our life-changing mission.”
Mohan brings more than two decades of experience leading complex health care organizations and has served as Elara Caring’s chief operating officer since 2021. In that role, he led Elara’s business units and worked closely with clinical teams, operational leaders and partners.
“We’re entering an exciting new chapter—one that builds on our strengths and positions us for continued innovation and growth,” Mohan added. “Our focus remains on delivering exceptional care in the home, supporting our team members, and ensuring a more connected experience across the full spectrum of our services—from skilled home health and hospice to behavioral health and personal care services.”
