“This unique partnership is not only a first in senior housing but represents the future of senior living – prioritizing health and wellness and creating environments where people thrive as they age,” says Patricia Will, CEO and Founder of Belmont Village Senior Living. “As we build the community from the ground-up, Belmont Village is at the forefront of how wellness programming can and should be integrated into the daily lives of seniors. It is our mission to promote total wellness throughout the aging process, and the Coral Gables community is a very exciting example of our innovative collaborations alongside like-minded partners.”

Patricia Will, CEO and Founder of Belmont Village Senior Living, Brian Keely, CEO of Baptist Health South Florida, and Vince Lago, mayor of City of Coral Gables, will attend the event celebrating the start of construction for Belmont Village’s 33rd community and the brand’s first partnership with a renowned healthcare system.
