PROFILE |
 |
Life Care Centers of America is a privately-owned operator of retirement and health care centers in the US. The company manages more than 200 facilities in 28 states -- including retirement communities, assisted living facilities, and nursing homes -- and provides such specialized services as home health care. Founder Forrest Preston opened his first center in 1970, and the company continues to tout a "corporate culture grounded in the Judeo-Christian ethic." However Life Care has faced complaints of poor-quality care, in part of a situation that plagues the industry overall.
