CHICAGO and NEW YORK, February 13, 2023 /CSRwire/ - Enlivant, one of the nation’s largest senior living providers, and the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI), the leading authority for transforming health and well-being with its people-first approach to buildings, organizations, and communities, announced today that Enlivant has been awarded renewal of its WELL Health-Safety Rating for Facility Operations and Management for its entire portfolio of 214 senior living communities. The rating recognizes Enlivant’s commitment to promoting a safer and healthier environment for its employees and residents.

This prestigious distinction affirms that Enlivant’s portfolio of communities actively maintained the requirements of the WELL Health-Safety Rating, by addressing consistent cleaning and sanitization protocols, emergency preparation plans, access to health service resources, and stakeholder engagement and communications.
