Lourdes Senior Community

What Lourdes Senior Community does

Lourdes Senior Community is a nonprofit, faith-based continuing care retirement community (CCRC) sponsored by the Dominican Sisters of Peace and operating from a single lakefront campus at 2300 Watkins Lake Road in Waterford, Michigan, since 1965. The organization delivers the full continuum of senior care through distinct on-campus facilities: Fox Manor on the Lake (independent living with one- and two-bedroom apartments), Joseph T. Mendelson (assisted living with 24-hour staffing and medication management), Clausen Manor (a 20-studio memory care unit equipped with SafelyYou AI-enabled fall detection cameras and Tovertafel interactive cognitive gaming), and the Lourdes Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center (90 private and 5 semi-private rooms providing short-term rehab, long-term care, nursing, and therapy). End-of-life care is delivered through an on-campus 15-bed Angela Hospice residence operated by a partner nonprofit.\n\nThe business model is residential-care-fee-driven: Lourdes generates recurring monthly revenue from residents across independent living, assisted living, memory care, long-term care, and rehabilitation. Pricing is quote-based, varies by care level, and is not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, relying on community outreach, scheduled facility tours (including virtual tours across all care levels), downloadable and online applications, and a strong word-of-mouth referral network supplemented by fundraising events (Golf for Lourdes, the annual Legacy Event, and the Tree of Life). The organization is governed by a board of directors, reinvests excess revenue into resident quality of life rather than distributing profit, and is currently expanding its independent living footprint with Ranch Style Homes (2025), The Villas (2026), and Lakefront Living residences (2026).\n\nLourdes competes as a mid-sized regional CCRC in southeast Michigan with roughly 130+ residential units and skilled beds, supported by 101–250 employees. Its competitive position is built on the single-campus continuum-of-care model, 60 years of operating history, faith-based mission, and partnerships that round out the care offering (notably Angela Hospice and the SafelyYou/Tovertafel technology stack for memory care). It has no public listing, no parent company, no disclosed funding rounds, and no M&A history; expansion is organic and geographically constrained to the Waterford campus and its southeast Michigan service area.
