The Well•Spring Group is expanding its footprint with an agreement to acquire The Village at Brookwood from Cone Health. The Village is a life plan community in Burlington. The transaction is expected to be completed no later than June 2022. Well•Spring has managed The Village since 2017, with marketing support since 2015.
Alamance Regional Medical Center developed The Village at Brookwood and opened it in 2003. In 2013, Alamance Regional Medical Center, along with The Village at Brookwood became part of Cone Health. “We view our next chapter with The Village as a continuing community partnership, and we are proud to welcome The Village into the Well•Spring family,” said Steve Fleming, president and CEO of The Well•Spring Group. “Our successful model for exceeding the needs of an evolving and diverse group of older adults promises to elevate even further what residents of The Village have come to expect in their community.”
“As a local operator of a thriving community care retirement community, Well•Spring’s sole mission is to provide a healthy, active and safe living environment for seniors in our area,” said Preston Hammock, senior vice president at Cone Health. “This expertise, along with their commitment to the same communities we serve, makes them the ideal organization to lead The Village into an exciting new chapter.”
Burlington offers residents limitless options according to Michael Garland, executive director of The Village. “Right here in Burlington, you have a city brimming with vitality, including the world-class Elon University, arts events at the Paramount Theatre, parks, lakes, great restaurants – so many of the things that people seek in a well-rounded living experience.”
The Well•Spring Group is a not-for-profit organization based in Greensboro. Its flagship operation – Well•Spring, opened in 1993 with a vision for a continuing care retirement community with services and amenities second to none.
“Over the past 28 years, our life plan community in Greensboro has honed an approach to senior living that is among the very best in the country,” Fleming said. “We offer an environment that marries both hospitality and health care delivery to individuals committed to making the most of their retirement years and we do this in a way that provides them and their loved one’s peace of mind that they are safe and very well cared for. That’s what a life plan community is all about – and that very specialized expertise is what Well•Spring can provide The Village at Brookwood.”
