Life Care Services, one of the nation’s largest senior living operators, took over management of Atlantic Shores Retirement Community on Jan. 1.

The 100-acre campus in Virginia Beach, VA, is owned and operated by Atlantic Shores Cooperative Association.

Atlantic Shores Retirement Community features 667 residences, ranging from skilled nursing and memory care to independent living.

“After much research, LCS was chosen to lead Atlantic Shores in a changing and complex senior housing marketplace,” said Atlantic Shores Board of Directors Independent Director and Treasurer Donna Kelsey. “We’re eager to utilize their resources and expertise to complement our management and staff in expanding value for our residents.”

Life Care Services, an LCS Company, is the second-largest operator of senior living communities in the nation and has expertise in the management of both Continuing Care/Life Plan and rental communities.
