What We Do
We Open Opportunities
Through Collaboration
Novare is a growing consortium of forward-thinking, single-site and small system Life Plan Community providers that have come together to collaborate, innovate, and enhance the world of senior living through shared next practices.
Foundational Programs
This series of meetings and peer exchanges provides members the occasion to share ideas and information, seek advice, and learn from one another’s experiences. Programs include CEO Forums and peer exchanges across more than 15 disciplines, such as operations.
Professional Programs
As part of a commitment to fostering exceptional industry leaders, Novare offers two unique professional development programs. Each organization within Novare is guaranteed the opportunity to send multiple participants to either program annually.
Best Practice Development & Idea Incubation
To promote best practices in the industry, Novare members develop and share Signature Programs—standout initiatives with proven results that fellow Novare members can adopt. Covering topics like community connection, health and wellness, and recruiting and retention, these programs provide a guide for enhancing everything from operational processes to day-to-day services. Often, they inspire more groundbreaking ideas!
