Moving Forward With Confidence and Care

LCS and Vi share a longstanding focus on hospitality, wellbeing, and meaningful experiences for older adults. As Vi joins LCS, residents and families can continue to expect the same warmth, personal attention, and elevated service they value today—supported by deeper expertise and long-term stability behind the scenes. 

LCS and Vi Living are united by a shared purpose: creating exceptional senior living experiences rooted in hospitality, quality, and long-term peace of mind. Both organizations are nationally respected leaders in Life Plan Communities, combining operational excellence, resident-centered design, and a deep commitment to whole-person wellness. With decades of experience and a forward-looking approach to senior living, LCS and Vi Living share a common belief that where and how people live later in life should be defined by choice, connection, and confidence in the future. 

Hospitality is foundational to both LCS and Vi. Vi’s roots as Classic Residence by Hyatt established a luxury, service-forward mindset, while LCS similarly positions itself as a hospitality-based senior lifestyle organization focused on meaningful experiences, satisfaction, and engagement. In both cultures, service excellence and human connection are central to resident well-being. 

Combined, LCS and Vi bring the strength of national scale paired with thoughtful stewardship. LCS supports more than 40,000 residents across 130+ communities, while Vi includes 10 luxury Life Plan Communities in six states. Both organizations emphasize financial strength, reinvestment, and long-term sustainability to ensure their communities thrive for generations. 

At their core, both organizations are guided by shared values—integrity, respect, compassion, and excellence—and a strong belief that people make the difference. Each is recognized for investing in employees, fostering inclusive cultures, and creating environments where residents and team members alike can flourish. This alignment in values ultimately strengthens outcomes for residents, families, and communities.
