Why Care Forward?

Lorien Health Services has remained a leader in senior care since 1977. Senior care is something we tend to not think about until it becomes absolutely necessary. Our care forward approach grows from our communities consistently leading in care.

At some point in your life, you may experience a medical event. When this occurs, your care forward changes, as this happens Lorien will change and adapt a plan to fit your needs. The forward-thinking approach embraced by employees gives the best care possible to every resident that enter our communities.

As a company, Lorien Health Services, has remained ahead of the curve. We were the first skilled nursing chain to offer a ventilator unit in-house, the first community to offer a combined skilled nursing and assisted living building to help in the transition of care. For those who return home after short-term care, we offer the ability to continue Lorien-level care with Lorien at Home. We strive to reduce the number of hospital visits our residents may need by offering an in-house telemedicine unit. Our therapy spaces offer progressive equipment such as an Anti-Gravity treadmill, balance gyms, synchrony speech technology, HUR equipment, and much more.

In addition to the technology Lorien offers our residents, the programs and activities are innovative. Our Mays Chapel community hosts Rock Steady Boxing for the community. This class helps those who are afflicted with Parkinson's disease. At the Columbia and Mays Chapel communities have each developed a Korean Unit. These units include foods, activities, and caregivers that understand and know the language.

As a company that continues to think ahead, we strive to anticipate what individuals may need in their care plans. Our CEO Lou Grimmel thinks of himself as the next customer and wants our communities to mirror what he would want if he were to need to stay in one. We look ahead and use technology to help us advance and grow, so we've decided to embrace the new tagline “Care forward."
