Life Care Services

    Life Care Services (LCS), established in 1971 and headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa, stands as the nation's leading manager of full-service senior living communities and the largest not-for-profit senior living operator in the United States. With over five decades of experience, LCS manages more than 130 communities serving over 40,000 residents nationwide, specializing in Life Plan Communities (formerly known as Continuing Care Retirement Communities or CCRCs), as well as stand-alone assisted living, memory care, and rental communities.

    The company's comprehensive approach encompasses operations management, marketing and sales support, health services, compliance, finance, human resources, risk management, strategic planning, and technology development. Through the LCS Family of Companies, they provide end-to-end solutions including development services, real estate private equity enterprises, insurance, national purchasing consulting, and in-home care services. Their innovative development projects feature amenity-forward designs, including cutting-edge elements like rooftop restaurants and microbreweries, demonstrating their commitment to evolving senior living experiences.

    LCS's philosophy centers on purposeful living, where aging means adding experiences rather than giving up on them. Their hospitality-driven approach combines data-driven services with personalized care to strengthen teams, streamline workflows, and enhance resident experiences. Signature programs include Extraordinary Impressions, their employee culture initiative; Heartfelt Connections®, a nationally recognized memory care approach; Eversafe 360 senior safety protocols; and the Health & Wellness Navigation Program™ that provides personalized care plans addressing all aspects of well-being. The LCS Signature Experiences program infuses hospitality into every aspect of community life, creating rich, engaging experiences for residents and employees alike.

    The company's excellence has earned unprecedented recognition, including being ranked #1 in Customer Satisfaction among Independent Living Senior Living Communities by J.D. Power for six consecutive years (2019-2024), winning more independent living awards than any other brand in the J.D. Power U.S. Senior Living Satisfaction Studies. Additionally, LCS received three awards from Top Workplace USA in 2023, reflecting their commitment to both resident care and employee satisfaction. As the fourth-largest operator of life plan and rental senior living communities nationwide, LCS continues to shape the future of senior living through innovation, excellence, and a deep commitment to empowering seniors to live their best lives.
