Welcome to Thrive and a fresh perspective on senior living. Over a decade ago we took a hard look at traditional senior living and senior care. We quickly knew we wouldn’t want to visit most of the places we saw, let alone live there. So, we created independent and assisted communities where older adults would not only love to live, but thrive.
What do most people think when they see gray hair? They see frailty, dependency, and slow pace. At Thrive, we see something very different. We see wisdom. We see laughter. We see ability. We see growth. We see potential. We see opportunity.
These perspectives, so different from tradition, have fueled a decade of remarkable growth. We’ve built a company, and a team, that shares these beliefs.
Today, nearly 1,000 team members come to work in our communities each day, driven by a passion for meaningful relationships with older adults*. Many of our leaders bring valuable experience from other industries, and they share a simple belief: when we care for our team, they will, in turn, care for our residents.
At Thrive, we dedicate ourselves to ensuring purpose is present in every moment for each resident we serve. We understand that older adults and their loved ones rely on us not just to live, but to live well. It’s a challenge we embrace, every single day.
*We prefer the term “older adults” over “seniors.” Sure, “senior” is in our name (mainly because no one’s Googling “Older Adult Living”), but it doesn’t give this group the respect they deserve. Too often, “senior” gets used by conventional thinkers to lump people together as less capable, less sharp, or somehow “less than” the younger crowd. Well, we call bull-senior on that. We’ve built communities that prove otherwise. Older adults come to Thrive to shine, to live their best days, and to be the envy of… well… non-older adults.
The older adults of today are living longer, and they want to live active purpose-filled lives. They are looking to downsize and simplify… not disengage. Thrive communities are built on the idea that older adults deserve better. To our team members, older adults aren’t patients – they’re friends with stories worth knowing and sharing.
Picture this: You walk into a Thrive community and see a group of young moms huddled in a cozy booth, coffee in hand, soaking in the parenting wisdom of one of our residents. Around a nearby table, you see a group of young, ambitious business professionals sharing a beer with several Thrive residents, fine-tuning a business plan together.
At its core, Thrive Independent Living is about building community. We believe it is more than cocktail hours and fine dining. It’s about being known and knowing others. Our residents are often looking to downsize or find a closer-knit community of friends. That said, don’t forget — we make a killer martini, the perfect kickoff to a perfectly grilled steak.
Thrive’s Assisted Living is ideal for older adults who treasure their independence, but like knowing support is right around the corner. Most of our assisted living residents are in a season of life where they want an extra hand with some daily activities, whether that’s a reminder for medication, help with cooking, or just a friendly companion nearby. Our team provides that support in a way that protects independence while making sure help is accessible any time of day.
Thrive Memory Care communities are designed to simplify life and empower residents to make their own choices. Just as important, we walk alongside families, teaching new and meaningful ways to communicate with a mom, dad, spouse, or sibling living with memory loss.
Every member of the Thrive team is NIDE (National Institute for Dementia Education) certified, from chefs and housekeepers to concierge and nurses. Thrive also partners with outside healthcare providers to enhance our overall community experience. While these partners align with our core healthcare practices and philosophies of care for our residents, they may not require NIDE certification like our Thrive team members.
