Headquartered in Cleveland, Tennessee, today Life Care employs more than 38,000 associates and operates more than 200 skilled nursing, post-acute, Alzheimer’s, and senior living campuses in 27 states. Two foundational principles were at play, then and now:

The goal of each facility is to be a full partner in the continuum of health-care services in the community in which it operates. Our facilities specialize in skilled nursing, post-acute care, as well as inpatient and outpatient therapy in well-equipped, on-site rehabilitation gyms. Additionally, many of our centers provide Alzheimer’s and dementia care.
