Chelsea Senior Living management has a culture of excellence in serving the senior population, and demonstrates a commitment to quality of care and consistent financial performance. To continue this focus on excellence and to maintain best-in-class facilities, Chelsea needed a partner it could work with and trust.

“In reviewing options to fund Chelsea’s growth, we selected Health Care REIT as our long-term partner because our companies’ cultures and goals are closely aligned,” says Herbert Heflich.

“Health Care REIT’s investment in Chelsea Senior Living was conducted in a non-competitive setting because of the longstanding relationship and a shared interest in becoming long-term growth partners,” adds John Getchey, Health Care REIT Vice President – Seniors Housing Underwriting.

Much like Chelsea’s commitment to always meet the needs of its residents, Health Care REIT is committed to the success of the company through the partnership. Health Care REIT’s business model is rooted in relationships, reputation and capabilities – and the partnership demonstrates these characteristics. Chelsea Senior Living selected Health Care REIT as a partner because the company was known and trusted. The end result is quality care and continued growth.

“Chelsea Senior Living’s high-quality standards and customized approach to meeting the needs of our seniors is strengthened through our partnership with Health Care REIT.”
