Avamere Living Community-Based Care announces a spinoff with a new brand, fresh look, and direction for seniors and stakeholders.
After 26 years of serving seniors and their families, Avamere Living Community-Based Care, previously with Avamere Health Services, announces a spinoff with a new brand, fresh look, and direction for seniors and stakeholders.
These independent living, assisted living, and memory care communities now operate under Arete Living (är-ā-tai).
Changes in Avamere’s overall organizational structure and strategy allowed the opportunity to spin off from Avamere’s full senior healthcare services organization, to rebrand and devote an even stronger focus on the senior living sector and meeting seniors’ and their families’ needs. Becoming a self-governed, independent company allows Arete Living’s leaders to make strategic decisions more quickly, offering the opportunity to expand in the everchanging senior living market.
For seniors, this means a more modern approach to seniors living with more personalized offerings for life enhanced. Arete Living’s stakeholders will benefit from a team dedicated solely to senior living development and management.
“We are thrilled to announce this monumental change in our company,” stated Sarah Silva, President of Arete Living. “Arete Living is a fresh, modern perspective on senior living, with personalized services and increased choices to honor our organization’s Greek definition of excellence.”
Silva served as division president for Avamere’s senior living division since 2018, where she led the division through 40% growth. Coupled with the dynamic operating environment, this led to the strategic decision to start Arete Living.
Thomas Cloutier has also served with the company for several years, joining Silva in the company transition as Chief Marketing Officer.
“Every aspect of the brand was intentionally created with a singular focus on our seniors and team members,” Cloutier stated. “We’re creating an organization and home for seniors that represents excellence, integrity, and passion for the people we represent and serve.”
