Thrive Senior Living expands in Texas
Thrive Senior Living and Orison Holdings recently announced a new community in the Fort Worth, Texas area that will open in late 2025, the companies announced in a news release.
Sagewood at Heritage Glen is the latest addition to Thrive’s senior living portfolio.
“We help create each community with the intention of redefining expectations around senior living care,” said Thrive President & CFO Sebby Kannukkaden. “Focusing simply on well-being isn’t enough. We believe great care is a by-product of efforts that prioritize the goals and dreams of our residents. As with all Thrive communities, Sagewood at Heritage Glen will also offer beautiful living spaces and unmatched amenities that give our residents the best, most independent lives possible.”
The community will include 50 assisted living suites and 25 memory care units in a unique neighborhood to meet the needs of residents living with cognitive change.
The project also comes following the announcement of a new development in Florida for Thrive, the International at Aventura.
A welcome center for the new Texas community is now open. Thrive operates communities in five states.
