About the Company

Ciel Senior Living

Senior living communities and care

Ciel Senior Living operates residential communities for older adults, with services that may include independent living, assisted living and memory care. Its teams provide housing, dining, wellness programming, personal support and care coordination around each resident’s needs. The company’s communities are designed to combine day-to-day hospitality with the added assistance families seek as care needs change. Ciel is therefore positioned as a senior living operator, not a hospital system or standalone home-health provider. Service delivery depends on clinical, operational and administrative teams working across its care settings.
